Following on from my thread about a new airbox, it's been suggested that the area behind the headlight would be the ideal place for one. I've got an ABS pump in the way. Thinking of relocating battery to boot and then moving the ABS pump to the area the battery's in.How big a job would that be? New lines? New harness?  Don't want to remove ABS as the car's never tracked ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

just new lines, from what I remember of the routing of the ABS wiring you wont need to alter the wiring much if at all,maybe the main earth and power cables.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

You´ll need lines going back and forth to the front brakes, that´s about all "extra". I´m thinking of this myself so have been looking a bit into it. May need all extra space i can get for a future turboengine build namely. And the area were battery/absunit/ecu is will become a nice gaping hole under the bonnet for other "thingies"  ________________________________________ Member of Peugeot Sport Club Swedenhttp://www.peugeot-sport-club.com/ My son: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzjSBKkMHDA |

While i'm at it, what maximum ampage does a cut off switch need to have? i'm guessing 100A continues/500A burst (5 secs) is too small?Seen one for 500A continuous/ 1000A burst (10 secs), sufficient? ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

 I would if it was a track car but given the fact my insurance went up just by changing colour I don't think they'd like me removing the abs!________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |
