get a smaller battery so you don’t have to relocate it. I think most people use the Miata batteries for this. Then you will have enough room for the piping. ---

thanks guys, good ol’ ryan (JDMpanda) helped me drill the hole today. fmic piping is all in, now it’s just the question of finding a small enough battery… the only battery small enough at canadian tire is a lawn mower battery LOL! (and ironically it’s a perfect fit for the amount of room i have left) ---
