track day sump

[jdearden]

i was wondering how i can tell if i have a track day sump fitted. found out yesterday my 2.5 has had the ecu upgrade to MBE. brake pipes have also been updated. just need to no if sump has been done also. any help would be great

if its visible via a big cut out in the undertray then its a tds,also it holds 7.5 litres !

theres a sort of triangle shape cut out but nothing hangs down in it.

[daddysumo]

then prob not a tds. They look angular at the bottom with welds everywhere !

[jdearden]

will it stick out of the bottom of the floor plan. has anyone got and pics of with and without. i do remember seeing it on a thread somewhere but cant find it.

This is the car with a standard sump fitted, not visable through floorpan.

And this is what the underside looks like when you have a TDS.

It doesn't hang below the line of the undertray, i'd say it's about level with it.

mine will be standard then. 1 more thing to add to the shopping list this winter.
