Obviously, there are limits but I've yet to exceed them with this battery. Although, I don't know why you would feel the need to run the fans, especially for 10 minutes, on a cold day! I've never done the fan mod. I have the PFC, with the fans set to turn on at 89C. Who needs a fan mod? :) |
Thanks again, I've decided to skip the fan mods and buy a PFC (I was thinking about it).... then down the road will buy the intercooler. Buying the battery tomorrrow. Good point about running the fan mod in the winter... not sure what I was thinking.

I strongly recommend to anyone running a Medium or smaller SMIC to get one of Jeff's battery trays (or make your own) and run a 51R. It saves a little over 10 lbs and has plenty of juice to start the car, run the fans after shutdown, etc. Much cheaper than a PC680 too, at least if you just stick with a maintenance-free battery like my 7-year Costco brand battery. can jeff's tray be used in conjuction with relocating the battery to one of the bins? and can any generic 51R battery be used? i know optima sells one but ive seen posts where people get them for sears or costco. same size but maybe the optima lasts longer |

I will also look into your IC since you have the same type radiator and the AST from Pettit.
It is also good to know the battery will hold charge for a few weeks. |
