Default Battery relocation

I wanted to know if relocating the battery to the trunk would be worth it? Would there be any difference? Would I notice the difference?

nope.... the only reason that steeda makes that kit.. or anyone else for that matter is so you can make room for your cenerfugal supercharger. if anything it would be negative.

the biggest thing like he sead is to get room. It does help but not enough for people to tell. It helps by better waight distribution and puts more waight on the rear tires.

it will take weight from the fron and add to the rear, which helps with traction and reduces nose dive. supposedly they say the way it balances things out is equivalant to taking away 70 lbs from your front end. and yeah, gives you some extra room.
