they sell a kit at summit racing, it has a new box and a wire to run up to the starter along with a ground wire.

For it to be legal for racing you have to have it inside a sealed box (if there is no firewall between the passenger compartment and the battery. And a vent tube if it's in the passenger compartment) You also need to have a manual shut off for it as well. And it has to be bolted down as well.

If I have a sealed optima battery in the back of my CRX (read no firewall), does it still need to be in a sealed box? Right now its just in the box that summit kit comes with, which isnt sealed.
