Icon2 battery cables and terminals

I need to replace my cables and terminals on my 99 civic si. I have been having corrosion building up that seems to return faster each time I clean them. This being the case I want to upgrade the cables. I was thinking that custom made cables would be best.
FONT="Palatino Linotype"]What gauge wire?
What metal is best to use?
How long the positive and negative wires should be and the connectors needed?
