battery relocation

[Steveyb_evo3]

personally i would go for the 2nd option there dan

The latter. I did 2 earths off the battery, both 4 awg. One mounts directly to a drilled hole on the chassis, and one in the rear wing. Works fine for me

nice one steve , I was thinking of making an earthing kit so maybe helpful to see where others have earthed to etc.

 

[Steve220]

I can tell you that now

- from the fire wall under the injector resistor pack to the thermostat housing
- from the mount next to the brace point on fire wall to cylinder head (this is where I've also mounted the new coil pack earth to give a better spark)
- from the gearbox to the inside wing
- from a bolt near the sump to the subframe

All threads were cleaned with the appropriate tap to guarantee metal to metal contact and bolts were coated in copper grease
