The reason the BMW was that close was because I tried to jumpstart the the Miata's battery. I had a battery charger hooked up to it, but I guess the alligator clips crapped out. After rewiring the charger, it displayed that the battery is a dud, so I'm going to need a new one.
Time for lightweight lithium and 3d printed battery mounting brackets?
Lol I was looking into a lawn mower battery, but I took my battery to Autozone and they revived it. I have fixed my battery trickle charger, and now have the battery charging until I have time to finish the car.
Fair enough. My ~5 year old battery died over winter one year and after a good charge it's been good as new (that was 6+ months ago). I keep a jump pack in the car, but I've never needed it.
I keep changing my mind on how to route the chargepipe. I know both aren’t the best as they have quite a few bends, but this is how I want to have the turbo clocked.
Option A: This is the original routing, it is 2” and does not make contact with the power steering reservoir or the intake filter.
Option B: I just got a 2” 180° pipe that needs some more massaging so it doesn’t rub on the intake filter.
