aight before im setting my system up im trying to get everything 1st off. i have 2 15" l7 kickers with a kx2500.1. i have a 300 HO alt and all my wiring is top of the line 0gauge. last but not least im trying to replace my stock battery and throw a battery in the trunk so i can run my system for a little bit when my car if off. im trying to run a non isolated setup. i was told to do that i needed the 2 same battery types up front and in the trunk. is that true? one last question. i read this article on http://www.betteraudio.com/geolemon/newmain/battcapalt/ and it said to stay away from deep cycles. i was planning on it anyway. im trying to find the best battery to put up front and in the bank. i was thinking about the STINGER SP1000 POWER2 DRY CELL battery its http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/STINGER-SP1000-POWER2-DRY-CELL-CAR-AUDIO-BATTERY- NEW_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33574QQitemZ8050452286QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW . alls i need to know is if i can buy 2 of these. throw one in the back and one in the front and will my car run fine and be set up nicely? thanks alot will

I wouldn't run without an isolator myself, and I'd use a gel cell deep cycle in the back, like a kinetik or odyssey.

Go with a regular battery as your stock battery. Somthing simple like sears diehard or interstate batteries or optima redtop if you want to spend more for somthing that will last longer.

Get a kinetik or stinger for the back and thats it.

also is it ok to have a bigger battery that puts out more amps in the back than the front because i was thinking about getting that kinetik batterry for the back and that would be more amps putting out than the front battery

alright someone let me know if this will be a good setup

i get a OPTIMA RED TOP under the hood for my starter battery the specs for the battery im getting are POWER:

CCA (BCI 0°F): 800 amps

CA (BCI 32°F): 980 amps


then for the battery in my trunk i get a Kinetik HC 1800
it throws out AMPS: 1900 and the CA: is 1350.

i have a 300A HO alternator

then i isolate the batteries with a hellroaring isolator BIC-95300A which is Up to 300 amps of auxiliary cranking power. all my wiring is 0 gauge and i will have the whole setup wiried with 300a fuses. can anyone give me any suggestions or is this a good setup. i have money to send i need some suggestions
