Just a heads up,

As per the NHRA rule book of 2009 it states in General Regulations Section 4:2 That "Any liquid other than engine fuel being used, located behind the front firewall (on a front-engine car), is considered ballast and is prohibited, except for intercooler tanks that contain water and/or ice only."

I took a look at some of the old rulebooks that I had around and found one that went back to 1996 and the rule was in 4:2 and the wording was the same with the exception of the intercooler tanks.

Looks like putting the accumulator to the rear of the firewall is a good way to get bounced from tech.
