Absolutely perfect fitment and easy to install. I will definitely be purchasing all of my batteries and mounts from you all.
These units are incredibly beefy while being wonderfully lightweight. They've survived three seasons of hard track use in all weather conditions and even a smash. One of the most cost effective and useful ways to reduce weight in the front of the vehicle and to add a few style points inside the engine bay. Thank you again for creating a great product.
As the title says, 2017 S3 dropped 27 lbs compared to the OEM Audi battery!
Went with the FT battery, and black casing.
60’ improvement of .07-.11 consistently
Car is used for drag racing, and I highly recommend this for anyone making their car go fast!
Will be using this all season long, coding / Calibration for battery was a breeze as all the data was available online. VCDS took 2 minutes to do and the car is as happy as ever. Cold start & warm start is just as good as the OEM battery in 50F+ weather
Haven’t had below 50F weather yet but so far so good!
This battery box is a welcome upgrade over the heavy, bulky, and awkward battery that comes from the factory. The PC680 over 20 lbs lighter and it's easy to change. Compared to having to take apart my aftermarket intake to change the stock size battery. The fit and finish is great and the raw aluminum looks great next to the aluminum head. I would highly recommend this battery box!!!
