Just finished relocating the battery to the trunk. Got a aluminum box from Racenet, along with a wire kit from Taylor. Installationg was a breeze. Alot easier than I thought it would be. Took about an hour and a half. Better feel going into corners. Maybe it's just my head playing games with me, but I'm happy


There's so much more room in the engine bay!!! Ready for upper intercooler pipes now!!!

IMO, it's an easy mod, with good results. I'm very satisfied. Let me know what you think!

 

red x's

 

hmmm, maybe i should also move my red x to the trunk

j/k bro, i really want to see how it looks like because i was planning to do the same thing.

 

Wow, nice X's!

 

I don't know why it's not working......oh well, we'll do it the old fashioned way

OT: am i seeing stuff or the porcshe is watching TV?????

 

LOL.....naw dude, that's a kerosene heater.....it's not on, don't worry. My pops keeps it in the garage for when he and/or I work on our cars in the winter.

 

scared me for a sec. i was about to offer to move in with you and stay in your garage (if the car is getting a Tv imagine what i would get )

 

Looks so nekkid in the engine bay now. At least it'll be a bit easier to do a clutch install now since you don't have to remove the battery, tray, and detach all that junk from the tray anymore.

 

looks good.... put my battery in the trunk on my integra.... hum... maybe i should do it to the evo too..gotta love that extra space under the hood.
