Would you rather: relocate battery or cooling fans?
Gauging interest to see what more people would prefer. If you had to relocate one or the other to make room to mount a turbo, would you rather:
A.) place turbo in battery location and relocate battery to the rear?
Or
B.) place turbo in front and center of engine and remove factory cooling fans to replace with a pair of pushers?
Thanks!

My turbo is in the battery location. Relocating the battery was not difficult, but I did use the Tick Performance battery relocation kit, which was well documented and had all the right ends and cable lengths, etc.

do it right and relocate the battery...its a cheaper and much easier solution.

Well not necessarily. Putting the turbo in this location while retaining all of the factory components is MUCH tighter from a fabrication point. Putting the battery in the back is easy but routing the piping requires a lot more work.

Seems like most in the battery area. With that, a very important question for those now. Please answer this:
If putting the turbo in the battery area and retaining factory fans, would you be okay with trimming out some of the metal area under where the overflow tank currently is for more space to run the piping to the turbo if a template was included with the kit? Or no way you would want to cut or trim this area?
*For those that haven't seen this area before, there is currently a hole under the battery where the overflow tank sits down it. We would provide a template to expand the size of this hole to make routing the piping to the turbo easier with more space and a nicer transition.
