thanks

 

There is a relocation kit available from summit and jegs I believe. Try this websites www.summitracing.com or www.jegs.com the kit is about $50 or so. Not sure what is all involed in the relocation of the battery.

 

thanks man i found one for 42.95 at summit racing

 

Why are you relocating it?

 

im gonna put a turbo in my car and i need the room to make it easier for myself

 

I moved my battery to the trunk. Not super easy, but not a huge pain either. Problem is space back there. there's no nook or cranny that the battery fits in perfectly. I ended up with it along the right back seat, up against the strut tower. Oh, and be creative when holding the battery down. Those J hooks that the kits come with have to be secured under the car, which is a real pain. I ended up with a fairly complex system, but now all bolts I need to access are in the trunk.

Best route to run the wire is under the back seat, through the shift console, and under the driver's seat. Then it's through the fenderwell and into the engine bay. This protects the wires, although it does require pulling up some carpet, and loosening the back seat. But if you're putting in a turbo, those little things probably don't bother you smile.gif

good luck,
