Re: Evo X upgrades

Just got back from a brainstorming session with speedfreak (Momin). It was fascinating and led down a path that I hadn't considered.

The X's battery is in the trunk. I figured, 'great', that means I can just hook my fuel pumps up to the battery and it's a nice short cable run. The flaw in that thinking is that when a car is running the power doesn't come from the battery -- it comes from the alternator in the engine bay. Doh!

My next step is going to be to wire my fuel pumps up car stereo-style. I'll run a 4ga from the engine bay to the trunk and use power and ground distribution blocks for the devices related to fuel pumps.
