Will this battery be enough?


Recommended Posts

Going to yes. I don't have the car here yet. I am just wondering if I will get big voltage drops and if I will have to charge the battery very often

I'm not exactly sure the specs on the battery but I recently burned up my stock 90A alt big three and xp975 in back. Although it could have been on its way out as y charging voltage was 13.6 but regardless you'll need to charge up the battery's often with that little alt and the pull your amps asking for.

Not a problem that's just my experience with it, I'm not very knowledgeable in the battery department man might wanna wait for someone that can further help you.

Well thank you for your time and explenation. I may actually have more space under the hood to get a bigger version of the series :D We'll see when the time brings.

Anytime, if your going to get another battery I would suggest xs power the price is a tad more I'm sure but they have been tested against many other batteries to be the best.

Get the group 31 version and you will be fine. And to the other comment above xs power isn't the best, they are one of the better battery brands but there are too many factors to consider to say they are the best.
