Ok so I relocated my Battery to my trunk. I grounded the battery negative to the trunk frame. Well the problem is, im now having starting issues. It sounds like when i dont have enough juice to start the engine. Now if i dont run the car at least once a day, the battery dies. WTF is the problem, can anyone offer some advice?

your car is not properly grounded.
ive had it both ways, with a ground running to the front, and grounded at the rear, its the same, as long as its done properly. make sure your gounds are making metal to metal contact in the rear, and add a ground from tranny to chassis at the front. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
