You can't just say that :p what happened over there lol

Just a poor attempt using penny washers through the floor and 4 awg wiring with no fuse near the battery.

Battery in boot FTW!

Mine is in the rear passenger footwell, does that count? ;)

Have you guys got a photo of your engine bay now youve removed your battery?

Any good?

I suppose that's one way of getting to check the level of the PAS fluid.

No to be honest techie lol

im thinking that with the battery removed there would be more space to run boost pipes for the NON twin pass boys like myself?

I don't know, you try to help and thats the thanks you get..lol ;)

There won't be 'more' space as such, just opens up the area around the n/s chassis leg slightly!

i think ill do this you know

will free up some space and allow me to run a boost pipe from cooler up into the engine bay and across, that will be loads better

Getting from down the front of the car, into the engine bay is very tricky with the slam panel blocking the way. This is why my boost pipe literally goes through the air intake hole in the slam panel. Removing/leaving the battery won't affect this as its behind the headlight and no way of running a boost pipe up from behind the front bumper, due to the aforementioned slam panel.

Which is why only the top part of my slam panel is left.

Wherever i tried to run boost pipes,something got in the way. Its very tight for space. Mine doubles back and runs across fromt of engine and then into the turbo.

Rightly or wrongly, i wanted the pipe from i/c to inlet to be the shortest so ran that from the other side
