I have a 91 integra, I'm going to be running 2 RF subs and a MTX amp, thats about 1200-1500 watts. I want to store the battery in the trunk. I'm looking at optima yellow because its more convenient to put in the trunk and won't leak acid. What do you guys think I should get? Which model of optima yellow I should get. Their website is down. I think its d51r??

Thanks.

 

just get something that doesn't need to be vented and your be set. Optima's are expensive and heavy, PM me i have some light batteries for sale.

 

I would/am getting a stinger battery! I have heard great things about them and they make one just for honda/acura! And it is only $100!

how long is the warranty on that sucker?

 

I'd say don't worry about the battery, and upgrade your alternator. The only use the battery will provide is to give power when the car is off. You'll still get dimming lights with a larger battery when the car is running if the draw exceeds what your alternator can put out... plus a larger battery will put more of a load on your alternator than a smaller unit (typically)

 

Thing is battery is dead. It time for replacement. I also want to relocate it in the trunk to make space for all the turbo piping that I gotta put in. Alternator is still couple of months old. I just need a good battery for my system.

So no go on the optima? its all hype?

 

i dont think its all hype... its a good battery and i've heard of ppl using it for years without problems at all

An optima is NOT hype.
They are the ONLY batt I will put in my car.
They are seen in almost any stereo car for a reason.
My Red top is going past 5yrs now.
No problems what so ever. 1,000 cold crankig amps is real nice.

 

So I should go with the red top? What's the model number I should get?

 

If you are running a 2 batt set up and you plan on putting the new batt in the boot, get a yellow.
Look for the one that fits your needs.
