Relocation of Battery to Trunk, Anyone do this? I got issues Options

[sapperk]

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?

yes if the cycle of positive and nigitive are not compleat the charge is no good it takes two to work...for exm==the positive wire must read same current as negitive if negitive is reading lower the positive will be lower....the current is always equal..........imo its best to run one 4gauge ground wire from batt to the front conected to a ground wire kit,,, the ground wire kit will be conected to the main ground wire while all the other ground wires in the kit be conected to the locations ground is needed...such as chasie...and altenator..ect.......further explain what i would do is run the ground to the front conect it to the chasie along with the ground wire hunny comb(kit) and have all the leads come from the hunny comb to there desired locations....starter, alt, throtel body, and so....where u decide to locate the ground with the hunny comb is entirly up to you just be sure the leads r in reach of there destination

edit::the more ground the better.....one 4gauge runnin from batt to the motor bay along with a ground kit will solve the problem....... not nessesary but it wouldnt hurt to ground the batt to the back chasie where its located....as well as the front...just be sure not to cross conect negitive and positive together
