Dont know what to do. Need Help!

hey wassup guys. I have a evo ix mr with hks rs intake, a tanabe concept g blue turboback and tune by big AL. the car felt crazy with just a few mods. Al did an amazing job. Recently I been thirsty for more power so I went an got a walbro 255 fuel pump, buschur's ported manifold & fabricated 02 housing, hks 272's cams and Ams intercooler+ lip sitting on my garage. I didnt buy the ams uip + small battery kit because i want to know if its worth the price? Will i be better off not getting it and install everything and tune or should i ad it to the list? Also im open for any other recomendations. thanks for your time

Why would he hate the small battery kit?

The way I see it is run the small battery with shorter route piping.

what are the side effects from using the small battery kit? from what ive read in many threads is that the AMS & Buschurs uip is less restrictive and cuts off more than a foot in length. THe only thing i could find out is that in only increases throtle response and not much hp is gain.

is there really a difference in hp gain from a uicp/stock battery to a uicp/mini battery ? And also with all the bolt-ons i have should i also get some fuel injectors or just leave them for when i upgrade my turbo

ive got a buschur uicp and mini battery kit . the space it opened up was great. looks are killer and shorter route to the tb is always a plus. by the way ive seen ams uicps and my bushur set up is way better. you could see where ams could have improved is a couple of bends. buschur ftw

Im not sure if its worth that much money if youre not looking to push a lot of power and weight savings. Mini batter does save weight, uicp does free up a lot of bends and will increase some hp. The less restriction will probably be more beneficial to high hp builds. Although it does free up a lot of space and looks a lot nicer. I spent the money because of both reasons.

The only real concern I'd have with a small battery is if you run E85 or AEM EMS, you'd be stressing the battery getting the car to start.
