Default battery relocation question !

i bought my car with battery relocated in the trunk but the previous owner used 4 gauge wire, i need a 0 gauge wire because i can feel current draw when the fans kick on. i found the wire on this site My link
but i'm confused between the standard cable and the high flex cable. which one should i get ?

4 guage should really be enough. Maybe you have it too long than what's actually needed? Or something else is drawing power that is not suppose to?
