Your car is 3,600 lbs on its best day. saving 20 lbs (if you're lucky) and spending an extra $200 isn't really good value.

And even if you did have an extra beefed up battery, i don't think the alternators on these cars are that stout anyway. you should probably scale back on the power.

if you're not running full sustained power on your system, then a capacitor would help more than a battery would.
