This is the only one I’ve found so far that looks like it will work. They don’t list specs though like size or inlet/outlet sizes or even if it comes with a lid. I’ll call them tomorrow and ask. My fix failed, the JB Weld isn’t sticking to whatever the tank is made out of. It’s leaking even unpressurized, worse than originally. I need 3/4” inlet and outlets and the original tank is about 8” x 3” x 5”. I don’t have much more room than that. This is the Canton CAN80-233S that @George B linked. upload_2020-5-18_19-52-26.png

You definitely need an aluminum expansion tank. I used to do a lot with Mitsubishi Evos. Had lots of cooling issues when we ran half sized radiators to stuff bigger turbos in there. This may be some help. There are a few that you can just weld different AN bungs in to get the desired sizing.

Looks good. A little more than the POS shit design replacement that Whipple wants to sell you, but I’d be willing to bet you wouldn’t need to replace this one in your lifetime. [emoji106][emoji16]

Why is it none of these list hose sizes or capacity or dimensions? I’ll have to call.

Bingo. I searched for “Whipple intercooler expansion tank” and this one came up- looks like an exact replacement including the mounting tab and inlet/outlet locations and angles. It says for 05-09 Rousch and Whipple but I know the 03-09 Whipple are the same kits so it should work.
