5.5L Modular Surge Tank by DeatschWerks
DeatschWerks' 5.5-liter staged surge tank is engineered to provide massive amounts of fuel flow reliably and consistently for high power applications up to and beyond 2,000 horsepower. The DeatschWerks 5.5 SST System includes the functionality of traditional surge tanks, with increased attention to the needs of those making big power. This has been achieved by focusing on the flow of both the electronics powering the pumps and the fuel moving out of the pumps.
The electrical connections of the DeatschWerks 5.5 SST consist of four M5 stainless terminals rated at a system current of 150amps. That is more than twice what is needed to drive three DW400 pumps at full capacity, but over-engineering is what big horsepower builds are all about. In addition, the terminals have been labeled for easy utilization of dual-stage setup.
The fluid dynamics of three high-flow pumps merging into a single feed can get complicated. The DeatschWerks 5.5 SST has been designed with flow-optimized 3-into-1 -10AN ORB merged outlet; this unique set up not only reduces expensive and ugly externally merged plumbing but also takes advantage of a siphon phenomenon that increases flow output by more than 10-percent.
In addition to supporting three pumps and massive flow, the 5.5-liter tank capacity and surge plumbing design eliminate fuel starvation during fuel sloshing and low tank conditions. Hit every apex with confidence knowing your fuel delivery system is up to the task of providing the fuel you need even under the most extreme conditions.
Features
- Consistent and reliable fuel flow for high power applications up to and beyond 2,000 horsepower
- Four M5 stainless terminals rated at a system current of 150amps
- Terminals have been labeled for easy utilization of dual-stage setup

Please Note: Wire a single pump to stage 1 as that is all that is needed for normal driving or idling to the start line. Wire dual pumps to stage 2 and activate with Hobbs switch, ECU output, or any other trigger to get the full flow of all 3 pumps when needed. Single-stage use is recommended for dedicated competitive drag racing only.
