Optimas a good off road battery. Otherwise, a waste.

Also good if you put your batt. inside the passenger compartment.

They must be sealed or gel cells at that point. Most people don't need them though, others do, especially when a pesky external wastegate tries to reside where the battery does in B3's ;-)

Optima...yes

SCCA requires an Optima style battery if it's going to be relocated or else you need a sealed bpx.

They crank like the dickens.

I've got 2 of them for the rally car.
