Battery relocation and short intake.
I bought a Velocity intake for my '03 focus but it was the wrong one, it had this cool K&N cone filter so I modded the Ranger for better intake into the stock airbox location first.
The rest of the Velocity Intake is for sale, trade or get it outta my garage.

After a few glitches I moved the filter to the battery location and put the battery in the air box location.

Final battery install.

All of the stock air system has been removed, so far the seat of the pants dyno says there is an increase in performance and the growl of the cone filter adds some to the truck. Sorry for the crappy phone pics but it's all I have. ;{)
