  1. Hey all.
    Looking to fit a smaller slimmer battery so I can fit my air feed to filter.
    Any ideas.
     
  2. The trunk? Is that the boot :-)

    Do you want a small dry cell race battery or a smaller standard battery?
     
  4. A smaller standard battery. Still needs to run lights sterio and other bits.
     
  5. Yes... :blush:

    Clio 172 / 182 battery will do the job.
     
  7. So, for example an Odyssey pc680 is good? A/c, radio, lights works fine? I use the car every day but there Is a big difference from 72ah (original) to 16ah (smaller odyssey). Thanks:wink:
     
  8. I do not think there's anything lighter than this. Ideal for track car :innocent:

    I've ran a PC680 in mine for almost a year with zero issues
     
  12. Great! I’m buying one.

    Have you relocated it? Thinking about fitting it under the seat if there’s enough space or putting it in the spare wheel well.

    Nah still in the bay, the weight of the relocation stuff makes it pretty pointless to have a lighter battery [emoji23]
     
  14. Sounds fair. Since the capacity is far less than the original one, is it still enough to flash the ECU without a charger connected?

    Should be, when I was at EFI getting mapped last year it had multiple files flashed on and didn't have a charger connected

  17. Perfect! Thank you :sunglasses:
