Stinger says Kinetik lies?

People use all sorts of brands in SPL competitions. You'll see basically every high output/fast discharge battery maker in the business rep'd at dB Drag World finals.

Funny thing is... if you're on a budget, you're always going to see more bang for your buck by picking up 2 or three $70 walmart everstart batteries than you would by spending $180+ on a single deep cycle battery. I ran an optima blue top until I sold my car (and moved to japan)... Love it, nope, it wasn't the best battery, but it rested at 13.4v and I never had a single problem with it... It was 4 years old when I sold the car and still going strong.


Had a buddy do that kinda setup with 4 walmart bats in the spare tire well of his civic. Crazy kid... fun times with that install.

they make battery boxes that you can vent outside of the car.

I agree tho... Sealed batteries are the way to go, no maintenance, no worries.
