Re: Lightweight Battery Options: Type One Battery (Spikey)
What exactly are the specs? Would you mind posting them, because I am in the market for a lightweight battery, and I would be interested in comparing that battery to the Dynabatt one. Thanks!

I've had the blue "reactor" battery available in the Summit Racing catalog for a couple years. How much is this one?

OE battery 28pds (on my bathroom scale)
400 watt stereo.....................NO
If you have a 400 watt stereo .........are you really concerned with weight?

Man, everytime I see this engine bay pic, I wanna paint my spark plug cover black. The only thing stopping me is my lazy factor and spend money on crap factor.
EDIT: I noticed you have an extra reservoir by the strut tower bar, what is that for? Also noticed that you removed one of your rad fans, how's the temperature holding up with just the one?

Kind of like having a fat girlfriend. So what if "it" smells funny, if she is fat, are you really concerned about sex?

Re: Lightweight Battery Options: Type One Battery (Spikey)
I wonder how one of these batteries would hold up in my car. I have AEM underdrive pullies and a aftermarket cd player (no amp, just deck powered).

Panasonic r0x0rs...if it was made by JVC then I would start to worry. Or if it were made by Kenwood, the battery terminals would probably all over the place like the buttons on their car audio decks 
Just to further stir the pot.
The OEM battery I replaced in my 97 said PANASONIC on it!

Re: Lightweight Battery Options: Type One Battery (Tommy_Gunns)
the Type One battery is also around 13.5lbs. it's not advisable to use any lightweight battery if you are running a powerful stereo system

I heard the Miata batteries are supposed to be great, in the new Road and Track or something. Special batteries, some people reporting they are lasting 7 years plus.
