Going to be picking one up soon and was wondering which one people go with? Why? Total weight? Setup? Cost?




Ive already searched, not much.

Sitting on the stock tray, requires side-bolt conversion terminals to attach to stock cables. Held down by a custom made 1/8" thick polished aluminum strap, bolted to the stock bolt location in the back, and the radiator cross-support in the front. Maintained with a Battery Tender Plus, since the car sits unused for extended period of time.

 

Thanks, thats a good link. Do you think i could dd a battery like that? Well not totally but 6 months a year.(live in chicago)
Do you think i would have to use the tender if i dd'ed the car in the summer?

 

The battery is pretty rugged. It's about the most powerful one they sell. But my use is "track only", so I have no idea how it will hold up to a daily driver. You don't need something like the battery tender if the car is driven with some regularity. Its sitting for a month or more that can cause problems.

 

Do you think i could get away with a regular charger when its not in frequent use?

 

Good deal Injuneer...

personaly i would get this one 9.5 lbs less and 50 dollars more... 11.5 pounds (over 900 PCA’s), race level quality, made for daily driving...

carbon fiber battery

 

It weighs 9.5# less because its a lot less pulse cranking amps (904 vs. 1380). There is no weight difference between the equivalent pulse cranking amp models, whether they have the plastic (no-weight) case or the carbon fiber case.

No.

 

i see what you're saying... i was just going by the one you listed...
what is the pca rating of our stock batteries?

 

Could i get away with just a charger or would i need their tender?


Does anyone run anything different?

 

tender... their cheap *** hell...

 

what about side mount conversion cables? Do they sell them? Should i go to autozone? What did you guys do?

 

Braille sells conversion terminals, not cables. Allows you to hook up your stock cables.

thank you sir.


Do you think it would fit in the factory bose sub spot? Putting a 10lb bottle in the spare tire well so thats not an option.

What do you guys think?

 

anybody with the battery in the bose sub spot? Anyone run any other battery? Optima?
