So I got a Swiftech MCP655 pump. I want a some sort of res hybrid thing that goes in my drive bays that will take in my pump, thus having me a res and pump 2 in 1 sorta thing.

I hear it is possible, what are ALL the items I would need for this? And it all must support compression fittings.

Its not a submersible pump. You cannot put it "In" a res.

There are options like this though.

^ thats the only thing for the D5 pumps in the form of a res + 5 1/4 bay.

don't use anything with Ethylene glycol (antifreeze) in it though! it will void the warranty and potentially eat at the glue that holds it together.

I heard the T3 was bad though.

i think they all still are not good from what i hear but they have since moved to usa to make things and it should be better once they do.

but your never going to be able to put the pump INTO a res... it's not a submersible pump as LiquidForce said.

So besides T3 there is nothing that can take in my 655 pump

?

The T3 idea is so amazing, how can only 1 product be like it?!

I wish WC was bigger, it seems the WCers in the world are so low that no one even wants to compete with (T3 is a basic idea!)

Koolance makes a top that you can attach a res to.
Link.

Problem is the whole set up is a wee bit expensive, since you have to buy the top and the res separately.

Edit: I realize it doesn't say D5/MCP655 but it is, it's koolance's version.

you could use this pump and put this reservoir on top. this also allows you to put bigger barbs on it.

EDIT: it's got an optional blue LED too
