I go two of those yesterday. I would have a hell of a time getting one under my hood, so I doubt it in your case. Unless you are good a metal fab and have a BIG empty spot. These batts are HUGE!

I used to drive a little *** honda. What's unsafe about it? Its the same voltage as any other battery.

I am someone who knows. There is nothing unsafe about replacing a little batt with a big one. What makes connecting it near an amp any safer?

it will be fine your cars electrical is controlled by ecu .

ps ask your friend why he said it wouldn't .

iono..he says with the amount of amp hour it has it will create too much power

yeh one batt is not safer than the other unless its not installed properly. just make sure the posts cant contact the chassies secure all connection and fuse the power wire.
