Noticed a few of you guys running this battery setup, smaller than oem but bigger than the pc680. Is the tray custom and the battery looks like something that could be purchased at advance auto?

you should get a new intake system (one that is a kit), clean up some of the wiring and vacuum hose routing, degrease your engine bay with "Gunk Engine Brite," and do this https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...t=brighten+UIM to your UIM.
