This may be a little extreme for what you're looking for, and I'm unsure how it's specs stack up against a big battery meant for CA, but here's a link,

if used as a secondary battery you can go small with kinetik 600-800, bat cap 800 or 400, oddyssey pc925...smallest battery i would go for under the hood with a car that has a system in it is a kinetik 1200 or battcap 2000...but alot also depends on the power of the system. If you have a 4000 watt rms system just one of any of these is TOO small for daily.

I remember seeing a huge cap that some guy bought that was russian military surplus that he was able to use to start his car. I don't know how long he could let it sit before it would drain but there was an article about it somewhere. It was 10 plus years ago IIRC
