Yellow top battery

Before I drive up to NJ to see Don, and before I get all my ICE installed, should I look into getting a new battery? Course, im running the stock one now, but would it be a good idea to get a better battery? Wheres a good place to find them?

thanx!

You can find them at most automotive stores and they'll charge you 120-170ish for them or at least in my area they do. I'm confused by the sizes for my car too go to a shop and ask them which one will fit and then you can buy it online.

Thanks. Those arent the best prices Ive seen, but theyre reasonable. Ive found them for $124.95 @ www.1st-optima-batteries.com with free shipping and $109.95 from www.remybattery.com but im not sure about shipping from them.

I run a yellow-top in my 3rd gen. Works like a charm, system still hits really hard without the car being on. I paid $160 for mine at autozone cause my old batt died and wanted to upgrade but still drive the car the same day so couldn't wait for shipping.
