I was thinking of a optima yellow top battery for my Honda Civic 2008 lx sedan is this a good choice I have two amps on 8 gauge wire each, mono sub amp is running 250w rms, 4 ch speaker amp puts out 600w maxx does this set up put any strain on the electronics of the cars charging system even when it's cranked up? They do cost about 180$ is it worth it?
