My relocation cost me $30 I bought the box and termanals from CT then went to pic up some welding cable from Princess auto.The welding cable is great for this because its so tough and alot cheaper then stereo wire.

yeah and then good luck passing tech at any track event.

if you are going to use the marine battery box idea my suggestion is make it a optima or another kind of “dry” battery and some way of strapping it down (rachet straps work good for this). Also you need a kill switch mounted outside your car (behind rear bumper is where mine is going, doing this next week).

If you don’t have a dry battery then you need a sealed box bolted down.
