Re: Air intake ??

Look into the hummer h2 intake kit. They work well with the passenger side mounted battery.

Re: Air intake ??

there you go....lots of choices. reality is you just need an elbow, a filter, and maybe a straight piece/or two and a rubber coupler/s in between. no need really to move the battery unless you just wanted to.
