Fuzzy you may want a bigger battery and ground wires or you may have slow starts also a bigger gauge wire will help keep resistance down especially from the alternator. The positive wire in the kit looks to be a 8 maybe 4 gauge depending on the distance I would at least do 2 gauge.

Did you consider weight and balance when you moved the battery?
If you can see the entire exhaust system while standing upright, you're either under a lift or you've done something wrong.

I did not although i do understand the benefits of leaving it upfront i simply dont make enough power or autocross enough to notice. It makes working on the car much easier and my trunk is loaded with crap anyways
2 full spares
jacks
jack stands
tool boxes
lights
extra harness
oil
coolant
assorted parts

If they made a 2gn bumper relocate like fattires did for the 1gns i would of jumped on that.

Also to update ive notices zero voltage issues even when it hit 7 degrees it started right up no issues.
