nope...just hook up your leads...in fact..you can run a hot wire from the trunk to your battery under your hood...

Keep in mind that with a different battery setup, you may not be able to take your car to the track. I know my friend wasn't allowed to take his Civic with a re-located battery onto the track because he didn't have a kill switch on the back of his car and it wasn't bolted down.

You can do that, connect both battery + to each other and both - to each other that way you get on big 12 volt battery. If you hook + to - and cross the leads you will end up with 24 volts! the alternator will charge the other battery too but the alternator is not designed to do that so you should get a bigger one to put more juice back into the batteries!
