Yesterday a friend and I installed a Taylor battery relocation kit. http://store.summitracing.com/defau...earchinresults=false&N=0&target=egnsearch.asp It took 3-4 hours, but it was well worth it IMO. It started out as I needed a new battery, the stocker was barely turning the car over. So I said screw it and thought it would be benificial for wieght transfer, and a certain cool factor, to trunk mount it. I also didn't want to spend big bucks on an Optima battery so I bought the biggest Wally Mart battery that would fit. Its the type that goes under the rear seat of certain cars. I did hook up the vents and route them to the outside to be safe. Well I'm not sure if it helped me last night at the track but I did pull three 2.0 short times on street tires. I also ran a tenth faster than I ever have before. It was below 50 degrees, but I would still like to think the extra weight in the trunk helped. Here's a few pics of the install, forgive me for the car being a bit dirty.
