Did you consider braille's ML30C? Other than cost difference was there a reason you went with the i34CE?
It does look like a perfect fit in the bay. Didn't look like you needed to modify anything for fit.

That looks great and always good to shed those pounds especially in the battery. My only issue with lithium batteries has been long-term storage. I purchased one of the other smaller Braille carbon batteries for the track car and after a few deep Cycles it was dead as a doornail. Just keep it on a lithium tender, which should be a pulse base charger. That's what Braille indicated should keep it alive if you store the car.

CONGRATS!! That's the way to go!! The specs match up and surpass OEM specs in most areas plus the big bonus, Super Weight Savings!! I am ordering Braille lithium battery soon too after my great disappointment with the RR Racing Lithium battery. I am very disappointed with RR racing as a company and it has been a bitter pill to swallow.

The i34CE is shorter than stock by about 2" but the same foot print, right now, I have a piece of foam under the battery so that the factory hold down will work. I may make something in the future to hold it down without the foam spacer.

Ron, your build is always on another level from everyone else. Very special brother. Big props!
I haven’t researched that Ctek thing yet.
Is it s charger and a monitor? Or just a monitor?
Ran my RR battery dead other day at the track. Left car in accessory mode and went to lunch...
Had to jump it to get on track. Felt like a tard.. Does that thing send you a signal when the battery is about to go dead?
I’ve been wanting to get a maintence charger for my battery from RR. Haven’t decided.
