If anyone is thinking about putting a fuel cell in a 04-01 integra and needs some pointers let me know. I am almost done with mine and while time consuming it isn all that hard. I am installing a 12 gallon Fuel Safe Enduro model with a fuel pump built into it. I installed mine with no welding. I can send photos also.

yes, pictures and any info would be greatly appreciated. I'd like to see how you mounted it with no welding. A professional installation (cutting floor, building cage around the cell, bulk head, etc.) was quoted to me around $2500. I'd love to save that kind of $$$ if I can safely do it myself.

thanks.

I looked at doing this last year, be during the 12 hour we were able to get two hours + out of a tank, I don't think the cell is necessary except for the faster fill capability. And taking into consideration that the pit stops have a manditory time period we were always finished with the fueling before the time was up.

I am only doing it for safety sake. These cells with their bladders can really take a beating.
