AMS mini Battery Kit

ummm!!
what was AMS thinking when they made there small battery kit.

I bought one of these batteries with my gt35r turbo kit.
I also have there UICP pipes as well.

i am not ready to put the 35r in yet and just wanted to fit the battery kit so save a bit of weight.

to my suprise you cant fit the battery kit with the stock air box in place
Lame...... it pushes the airbox a bit to far forward and you can get the bolts to line up for the airbox.

Oh well i guess i will just have to wait to fit everything one time!!!!!

Cheers

Your turbo kit came with an intake tube, MAF adaptor and K&N Filter. Why not just pull your factory air box off, and install the MAF adaptor and K&N filter to make room for your mini battery kit?
