This kit is a direct replacement for the OE coolant expansion tank. It offers an effective solution for reducing sludge and carbon build-up, in turn allowing the engine to both breathe and perform more efficiently. It can therefore be viewed as a genuine performance-enhancing product and one, we recommend, particularly if you are planning more advanced power tuning in the future.
The Forge Motorsport twin catch can and coolant expansion tank system filters both PCV and intake breather systems to help keep your engine clean from harmful contaminants, including oil deposits, unused fuel vapours and moisture, which would ordinarily make their way back through to the inlet of the engine. All of this is now collected in the catch cans.
There is a dipstick for each tank to measure the amount of deposit caught, this opening can also be used to pump out the captured contaminants or alternately you can use the drain plugs at the bottom of the tanks.
As with all Forge Motorsport kits, premium quality braided hoses are included. These have been constructed from anti-static, smooth fuel-resistant nitrile rubber. This is combined with an outer cover made from reinforced stainless-steel wire braid, specifically a partial inner braid and a full cover outer braid. These special hoses ensure the tank is resistant to both pressure expansion and vacuum collapse. They also enable the kit to function within a clearly defined temperature range – 54°C to +150°C (-65°F to 300°F).
The FMCT5 is available in raw aluminium finish or our stealthy textured black powder coat finish.
