Push comes to shove you can always move the battery to the trunk. I think the setup is similar to my engine, the intake is on the driver's side . Here's my engine (that jumble of wires in the upper left hand corner is my boost controller, the long tube running over the valve cover is my boost gauge line, besides those it's stock) Just to give you an idea, i'm pretty sure the ca and sr engine's are laid out the same.

so do you think that it is worth it ??
i dont want to move the battery in the trunk tho i want it on the other side (drivers side)

Ok i'm getting confused (when I said driver's side i ment the US driver's side) where is the KA intake? anyway if you do a SR swap I'm sure moving the battery would be the least of the problems.

I've seen only one 240 with an SR swap with the moved battery. This guy did it because he wanted less weight at the very front of the car, I believe. I don't know of anyone else...
