The next best option is a PW kit in the front bumper. A bit pricey and always comes with the wrong f*cking terminal which is bullsh*t. As for the intake, you would be able to do it yourself mate.

Theres a kit I think from Rapid that relocates the battery to the boot, for ~250$ ish, this was a while ago dunno if he still does them, check out his website, he is a site sponsor..Turbo side intake, theres a few that do them, but also can be expensive.. As henz said with a bit of piping etc.. you can do it yourself for ~100$, more for a decent filter and to box it up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD Custom in mornington does an airbox/pipe setup pretty cheap if you re-locate the battery yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep your earth cable as short as possible and run the Positive cable from starter motor to boot then cut the original positive terminal off and fit a lug and mount it to the fusebox, piece of piss Edited 28/03/12 09:31 AM by bionicxr6t05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure on price as I got mine as a package, might have to give them a ring. I've got some pictures if you want to have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
