Default dry cell battery for turbo...

ok, i was going to relocate my battery to my trunk, but have decided to locate it on the bar that runs across the front of the engine bay. Im gonna fab up some brackets to mount it to the side of this bar, plenty of room to make it work...anyways. I have heard good stuff about the braille battery...160.00 is EXPENSIVE but it sounds like its got a lot more CCA than the odyssey does. What are you all using, and where do you have it mounted. Im not even gonna try to have it near the turbo, dont want to melt it. thanks in advance.

i like it, thats what i had in mind. I guess there isnt really a good reason to not use the stock battery, i was just gonna save some space. How did you mount it there if you dont mind me asking.

yeah the braille sounds really nice. I was gonna relocate the battery but still wanted something better than stock i guess. I mean really if I relocate it to the crossmember then the stock battery is fine, but the braille is smaller and a LOT lighter which is kinda nice. hmmm....never been this hard choosing a battery. lol
