I was watching the speed channel and the new show where they mod imports was on, i can't seem to remember the name of it. Tuner transformation or something. Well anyways, they modded an evo8 and they used an auxillary fuel system where they could switch over to a seperate tank filled with 116 octane at a flip of a switch. where can i come about getting a system like this?
 
The question is why? I saw the show and it doesn't really make much sense to me. If you have 2 seperate tunes, one for pump gas and one for race gas, then you probably aren't going to use the race gas tune much. Just make sure your tank is low and put the race gas in.
 
I saw the show too and had recorded it so I just looked back and found the URL that was on the fuel cell. Unforunately the site is new and has nothing on it, but the URL is here:

They link to Vishnu tuning and the fuel cell has Vishnu stickers on it so likely they will/are partnering with them and if it follows Vishnu's other offerings it will likely be marketed for EVO's and WRX's and maybe porsches. It looks like it was just a fuel cell that just had custom bracketry, a pump, and custom hoses to connect it to your car. Likely they'll just make custom "install kits" for different cars with different bracketry to fit different vehicles; it would likely be easy to just buy a fuel cell and external tank and then connect it to your existing fuel system with valves and solenoids to shut off the existing pump and turn on the seconday system.
