Dear Mr. Honduras,

1. Take your CAPS LOCKS off. We ain't deaf, ya know!
2. If you truly live in the Honduras, we have absolutely no idea what brands or types of batteries are available to you. If you were able to buy an S2000 there, then you should be able to buy the OEM battery to replace it.
3. 75 Amp? I guess you don't know how batteries are rated. You need something that has about 500 Cold Cranking Amps. Group 51.

Yes. 500 CCA is a guide. Get the highest one that's a reasonable price. Many people here use Sears DieHards, Interstate, Walmart.

Please re-phrase this. I have no idea what you're trying to ask.

I think he meant to ask "What if I use a battery with less than 550 CCA?" Would anything bad happen? Maybe he is not able to find a battery with 550 CCA where he lives, or maybe he wants to save some money.

I only mentioned 500 CCA. If you can find one that's 550 CCA without costing an arm and a leg, even better, but not necessary.
