For those of you who've installed a rear mounted ice tank/reservoir:
1) Did you add an additional pump or just replace the whipple provided pump (in front location). Many of the photos I've seen show a rear mounted pump system. IF so, does that eliminate or supplement the OE blower pump? Does it follow the whipple pump logic (or is it a constant flow with key on trigger or something?). I saw some aftermarket modules that incorporate a fluid temp sensor to get full benefit of the brushless pumps (increases pump speed with temp).
2) The PNR tank setup features options for 90 degree fittings or straight. What's the best selection for the whipple setup? I may end up going with the Cobra Jet lid (which still features 2 inlet and one outlet configuration) so perhaps on the blower end it won't matter (so straight) but on the tank end, does it make sense to straight or 90?
3) I don't see a bulkhead fitting option. Someone I spoke with described their setup and it has a sandwich style bulkhead fitting to go from undercar to the trunk area (rather than cutting a hole and having the line pass through and being a potential rub/abrasion point).
4) What did you do to fasten/attach the lines under the car? Brackets? Zip ties?
