What Would Glenn Danzig Do
Welp. Long day in the garage.
The eurojet intercooler didnt fit great, I expected better out of them honestly. Had to dremel out the mounting holes slightly to get them lined up with the tyrolsport radiator. Not the end of the world. The horses were a but short for my liking as well and the passenger side is linked slightly. Over time it might crack in that location. Sigh.
Gotta fiddle with the headlight/bumper fitment. It's a tad wonky after I put everything back together. Happy it's back together though.
Was going to go for a short drive, dead battery and can't find my jumper cables. I might go back to an OEM battery instead of a lightweight. This is the second braille 11 pound battery in just over a year. They warrantied the first one, 2nd one doesnt have a warranty. Not sure it's worth the 30 pound weight savings at this point.

Are you leaving it on a trickle charger? If not there’s your problem. You don’t drive it enough for it to keep its charge.

What Would Glenn Danzig Do
No but I disconnect it when its sitting. Braille told me if I disconnect it shouldn't need a trickle charger unless its winter. They were wrong.

Hopefully they’ll warranty it again. Then take my advice and put it on a trickle charger. A battery tender is like $50.

They were fairly explicit that the replacement doesnt have a warranty. Still gonna try
