Yeah, my car is all out of whack.
Rear hatch is gutted, but added a SC to the front.

Well, I still need to move the battery and possibly migrate a few other things in the front which will help.

That's what I've been researching today. The battery is a big boy. My new seats made a huge improvement. When my new steering wheel gets here I'm going to bolt my seats to the bracing and get rid of the sliders.

Yeah, seats are probably a fairly large reduction and center of the car also which helps. Only issue for me is I need seats that lower me, being 6'5" is tough.

That's actually the main reason I'm doing this. When I mounted my Recaros tht actually sat higher. I hate that.
