You're not gonna find any of that for cheap. You're gonna have to save up then buy what you want.

Better to do it right the first time.

not bad batteries, not great for car audio either but they are self venting so dont use it in the interior.

ok, but i have no idea what i need or am looking for when it comes to batteries, this is my first bigger setup where i actually need this stuff.

check out my build pics, i would love to have a smaller battery to lay on its side under my sub box, maybe two if needed, i have roughly 8" of room to mount one vertically.

or would i be better off with one big batt under the hood to replace my stock one?

Asking for help is only good up to a certain piont. To Really get into things, you got to do the leg work yourself...

Get that search button going.

Once you got a list of everything you think is good. let us know and we'll tell ya if it's good or not....or else you will start a thread war of which stuff is better than the other.

the battery he posted for the price of 150 would make a great main underhood battery

my batts are great for car audio use the valve regulation is just a precaution almost all of the "car audio" batteries are made the same way do some real research before posting
