I wanted faster results, so I decided to to start this in a more visted section.

I am trying to find a battery that will start my car fine in the cold, but more, im looking for a battery that will eliminate my voltage drops that I still get with this 160 amp altenator. My voltage drops, when I bump my system, without anything else running, goes from 14.7. down to 12.8v now.

My current battery specs are:

CA: 650 Amps,

CCA: 525 Amps

What about buying a new one on ebay?

Im thinking about this one right here.

How does that look? Do you think that would eliminate my voltage drops?

Don't buy a red top. get a Optima yellow top. they are designed for car audio use.

Well, I really cant afford a Optima yellowtop, but how about this

Wat should I look for as far as specs in the Optima Yellowtop?

This is the top line of the yellow tops, and this puppy is used, so its cheaper then new. Here. So what do you think of that one? Oops, my bad, it still has 4 days left.
