About as much as the battery you want plus wire? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Make sure its a sealed battery, or shall die with toxic fumes.

Just run teh wires from your current battery to the back....

Most just run a single 1/0 from the front positive to the rear positive (making sure to fuse both ends before connecting to the batt. Make sure you have a solid chasis ground up front, and a solid chasis ground in the back. If you want to play it safe just run another 1/0 from the ground post of the front batt to the ground post of the back batt. (no need to fuse this one) Sometimes you can find nice batts for cheap in the for sale section //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I already have a yellow top and I was just going to put the red top in front or I was thinking about a kinetik 2400

Hi,

I've always heard(For Real),That *Both Batteries* should match,and be purchased together.I guess due to the fact of age of the 1st one,and then purchasing another several months later,for example.

All the Best with your System.

Kind Regards,

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif The biggest concern with two batts... esp. of diff. sizes is leaving the vehicle sitting for long periods of time with the batts connected. If you drive your car daily you should see no ill effects from having two diff batts connected in parallel.
