Yeah, I have kicked the battery relocation idea around after seeing the other poster's pics. I imagine I would still need an aftermarket k member for downpipe routing (not a huge deal) due to the compressor.

Mounting up high will make it harder to keep heat out the engine bay, My turbo mustang is hard to keep from over heating with it mounted above frame rail.

Who has kept the stock kmember, a/c, and not moved the radiator? Are you guys with the stock radiator still able to keep the turbo high enough so that it can still properly gravity drain?

My turbo is high enough for a proper gravity drain. Also, I was able to use my stock k-member. However, for truck manifold setup, keeping the a/c is impossible, unless you modify the manifold with v-bands flanges.

What about if running the c6 manifold on the pass. side? Are you running a 3 or 3.5" dp and which side of the car is it routed down? Any photos to give me an idea? Trying to come up with some ideas for a build
