Relocating battery to hatch.., wiring? Options

[mark_426]

Hey guys

those of you who have relocated the battery to the hatch - how did you do it?

Did you run two leads back to the hatch, basically extending the old leads? Or did you just ground it in the back somewhere?

What gauge wire did you use?

Any suggestions on where/how to hide wires, or run them through the firewall?

thanks

Size isnt really the issue, its the power. Its like this, throw on a turbo and max out boost to the extreme of the internals, A, you throw reliability out the window because its always gonna be harsh conditions, B, its always gonna be maxed out. See what im saying? Its best to have more juice(battery wise) than you need, than to be at bare minimum. I was working on the car all day and forgot to get the specs, type and all that, I will get it tomorrow. My battery was cheaper than our stock batteries and im almost positive I got it at advanced. Ill get specs tomorrow. Its not super smaller, but it is decently smaller and a lil lighter but has the same cca and stuff as the big bulky ones.
