My thinking exactly, but I love the fact there are people out there exploring all the options. It looks like a lot of extra work / plumbing / expense and the only real bonus I can see it the immediate boost available from the storage tank (a cracking idea).

Having said that we do know that getting a genuine 100rwhp out of a 2v is still an expensive business and not always 100% reliable. 95 is much better target as it's cheaper to get there and the extra 5bhp is all but unnoticeable in the real world.
