He also used very insulating and durable hose. I don't have the link, but it was posted in a thread here on the forums. It was a link to the MB forums I believe.
I am considering this modification myself for later this year.

I've been looking at the Braille & Odyssey compact batteries. I was looking on the MB board where a guy had pic's of his Odyssey battery sitting on top fo his OEM battery. I think the battery was 3.5" thick 7" wide & 7"tall, he was planning on installing a S/C reservior in the OEM battery holder with it. I was looking at a site they posted, I think the battery was about $130. Sounds like a good idea, but my wife will go off on me for buying a $130 to $150 battery to replace a perfectly good one
