      trying to get the car as good as it can be N/A first, then add boost. SO basically after this 150lbs is out I'll likely add boost.

          I may just sell the ITBs to fund the turbo setup

              you can lose 10lb moving the battery to the front right side tray under the hood. Same place BMW put it in the verts.

                Don't sell the itb set up man. Do that with the turbo. That would just be bad ass.

                      This 12 volt LiFePO4 battery is the same size as the popular YTX-12 motorcycle battery, but it offers a full 720 cranking amps and weighs just 3.3 pounds.




                      Prob overkill for a M20, so you can go to the 20 cell model with 600 cranking amps @ 2.65 lbs for maximum effect.

                        We had those at the Motorcycle shop I used to work at, very light batteries. Work really well from what the racing guys told me.
