Im planning on having a 2,000 watt rms amp (hifonics) hooked up in my 95 lexus es300. Im also thinking of a new battery. is optima a better battery than kinetik? or are they two different types of batts? sorry if this is a newbie question...lol.

The Yellowtop Optimas are good, as are the Kinetiks.

Look around, you can find batteries that are just as good for less$.

Powersonic, Odyssey...are a few that come to mind.

Look in the yellow pages for Battery, and talk to them about Group 31 AGM (absorptive glass mat), and SLA (sealed lead acid).

You want >100Ah...and >1000CCA.

Good luck!

i got an odyssey. its rulez hawdkoe

I've got 2. It's supposed to rluz hardco....but I haven't the alternator for them yet.

*waits patiently for July 9th*

I got a kinitik and oddysey

but yea they are both beast. The kinetik has more cca's though.

Also u might need a new alt unles su get alot of batts. Some amps dont like low voltage...aka orions, well the one i had.

Which models do you have?

i see. so its good to have a high output alt? i dont think i can afford one, due to college funds, and i was thinking just a single batt upfront. anything really is better than stock. which one would be better upfront? (considering i cant afford the alt).

I have access to both kinetik and optima here. unless theres some other brand (like the ones you guys sed) that i should take a look at?

thanks for all the help guys.

If it's going up front(engine compartment), the one that FITS is best. And bigger is better.

If you want to see sizes for ALOT of different batterys and manufacturers... Batteryweb.com has good info.
