IMO I rather loose 35lbs upfront and gain 46 in the rear (batt + wire) then to only to loose 20lbs up front. You want a better weight distribution to favor the rear. More weight off the front will put more pressure on the rear tires.
Yellowmonster- That's what I did.... Opt 3.

I got all the stuf to relote last year. came to over $250 to do it right and weighed 10Lbs more. I decided not to do it but now that I am getting the car ready for 9s I really have no choice.
At least I already have all the stuff

why are guys getting away with running the BMR battery relocator in the back of the car and its not a sealed box? im also doing this cause the ******* before me striped the battery bolt hold down under the hood so i figure im shooting for a low 11 now and hopefully 10 next year i might as well do it its all done wire all ran just waiting on the BMR tray for the bak that goes where the spare tire goes will try to get pics up by next week
I talked to my local speed shop and they said that if your runnin a Gel battery such as an optima then you are not required to run a sealed box...but for all others you are required to adhear to the sealed box policy.
2fast...where did you buy your stuff....im still lookin for a good deal on everything this weekend may not work out but pics will def be posted when i get it done!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This mod isn't for everyone. 0/1 is highly suggested and it isn't cheap when you add up the 6-8 dollars a foot and all the connectors, mounts, and heatshrink you will need.
My car starts and runs accs much better after a relocation with 0/1 even though you have more "potential" distance to drop v over.
