If you do need to reloacte your battery to the trunk I think it's summit racing that makes a relocation kit. Here is a pic a battery box in the trunk of Marty King's car.

You can get a small battery and turn it sideways if you want, but the stock battery wont fit with the Greddy pipping. The piping comes up right through the middle of the area where the battery sits. I can take a few pics of mine later and post them if you want.

Moroso sells a box and long cable kit to relocate to trunk. u must use a box in the trunk cuz batteries emit acidic vapors.

Oberkill: That would be great if you could post those pics for me man.
