VMP Tuning is proud to release their new Underhood Ice Tank for the 2011-14 Supercharged Mustang GT 5.0L. This tank lowers underhood temps and increases horsepower and torque for quicker ETs at the dragstrip.
Official Release:
It’s finally here, the VMP Underhood Ice Tank for 2011-14 5.0L Mustangs can improve your ET by .2 – .4 tenths in the 1/4 mile! This tank replaces the factory degas bottle with a 2+ gallon capacity aluminum tank with a large lid, perfect for loading bags of ice before a run.
Requires removal of fresh air tube and VMP recommends removal of JLT heat shield as the tank now functions as the heat shield. Optionally, you may trim the JLT shield. The VMP Ice Tank does not fit with Roush airbox style intakes or Roush 110mm intake. Does not hold pressure, not for road racing use, do not exceed downstream air temps over 150F when using this tank. The drain valve is located to prevent fully draining the tank, this is to keep the pump from sucking air and loosing prime. VMP recommends installing a switch on the pump circuit so you do not melt all the ice before getting to the line.
