I moved the battery to the boot on mine, but even with a high quality thick cable it didnt start as well plus the amount cable needed to go from the engine back to the boot weighs a ton if you're using the right thickness.

I ended up just putting a small motorsport battery in the standard location in the end. Saved about 10kgs, takes up a 3rd of the space under the bonnet and starts much better.
