The battery still works fine as is regularly maintained via a ctek trickle charger. As changing tune files at the track (via the sct xcal device into the obd II port) takes a lot of battery drain, here is my "long winded" question. Can I connect a 2nd battery to the incar dry cell battery terminals via a red/black jump starter lead to provide extra current while the tune file is downloaded? Thanks.Edit Reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either a jump pack or there are little battery things you can buy from repco that might work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
