Nothing special, just wanted to post up a picture of the lightweight racing battery and how freaking small it is. If you cant find it , lol ..its the black box to the right of the injen intake. Still need to do a few more minor things but got it in there real good and sturdy. Just shot the pic tonight. What do you think ? I really like it. As long as it continues to crank the car up, its all good to me.

 

how much lighter is it??? ....

 

until i read what you posted i couldnt find the battery. That is extremely small, looks like something off one of those battery operated toddler cars. How much did it cost u?

 

it was 100.95 and believe it or not i didnt weigh it yet. but they say its 15 pounds. i had a stock nissan battery i replaced. and it was 35 pounds, so it cut a quick 20 lbs. off. the battery could be lighter. need to weigh the little thing.

 

Yeah whats the weight ,and what model #.
My reactor battery #1236 weighs 23.2 lbs with 700 cca.
Wow i didnt know they had a battery that light i would have bought that.

 

Odyssey PC680MJT

website i bought it from:
http://www.odysseybatteries.com/auto.htm#bcigroup

the battery cranks with ease, we have also had a few nights in the 20's and cold days, and the battery has no problems at all.

 

I plan on getting on of those once spring rolls in. I have a buddy with a heavily modified Contour SVT and he has a Dynabatt battery which Odessey has become so technically he has the same battery as you. It's been in single digits here and he's still running the freaking thing!!!! He did say his car was have a harder time starting when it's 20 out and he hasn't started the car in 24+ hours. In 30+ degree weather he's had no problems. I believe he's had for 2 years now.

I figure with the battery (-26lbs), CF hood (-26lbs) and Millenia 15s with 225/50 drag radials (-15lb, both side), I'll have shed almost 70lbs from the front end when running at the track

sounds great, i think anyone who wants to hit the dragway should pick up one. just a little something extra thats kinda cheap. like you were saying dave. these things add up when you combine the this and thats ! lol

 

Now you need mevi!

 

Ceasar you have a clean *** engine bay. Do you ever drive that d@mn thing or did they respray it when you got paint.

 

Bringing up an old one. Ceasar have you had any troubles with this yet? My car is definitely a three season car so I'm not worried about the cold. I'm only worried about its capability to effeciently run a system when the car is on. Do you ever keep the car in accessory mode or is that not possible any longer with this thing? Did you ever weigh it? I like it for the weight and the fact that I can hide it away in the fender.
