Because for my car, the cca and reserve power are not sufficient enough.
thats why its a Race Battery.

Besides im not really going to save any weight in my car without completely gutting it.

Red is for additional cranking power and ampheres per hour
where the yellow is good for audio stuff, it helps out by having more than the red top.

the reason that i chose the battery in the above link is because it weighs 13.5 lbs and is rated better than the oddessey battery. I dont have a system so i dont care about running outta battery life cause i wont use that much power. I am wanting to lose some weight so a battery will be a good place to start. If i only go with a stage 1 s/c then i am going to need to lose a lot more weight.

i dont wanna spend more than a grand on some coilovers. i was looking at the bc's cause that is what kevin said was good. I also was looking at the ksport ones.

however i still want my car to look the same. I guess i can take the sound deadening out and then put the carpet back in. Its still going to be my dd so i want it to be comfortable.

Buddy Club is good stuff, im not to familiar with K-sport.
I would get the TEIN Flex with the EDFC system on it.
Its pricey but its awesome.

I want that one as well. On my evo, I had the buschurracing battery. I'm sure there's was a version of the oddysey.

[GlxyGry06Si]

the braille are very expensive but a little lighter than the one i posted. But mine is like 50 bucks compared to the braille at 200 bucks. they have about the same cranking power. I still dont know yet tho.

go with what does the job well, buschur racing is good stuff.
but as jarred said they are little pricey.

cuts the weight down by half though jarred.

What about that for a battery?

If you go for less than a thousand go for the Skunk2 pro-S. It's street dampening with up to a 3 inch drop.

K Sport, megan, and Function/Form are all the same coilover made in Taiwan and painted different colors.

Plus the K Sports have been known to rust.

If you want something for the track go with redshift/koni's, or skunk2 pro-c's. I've heard the tein's are bad at the track by some of the professional racer's on here. No gain on lap times over stock.

On the other hand they gained a whole second on each pass with the Skunk2 Pro-C.

It has always been my battery of choice.

Any aftermarket suspension will make more noise then stock. It's where you blur the line between performence and comfort.

BTW I'm heading down there tomorrow.

i have Pro-S on my civic, not the nicest ride but handles damn good.
best 1000 dollar setup i have invested in my civic

[GlxyGry06Si]
