New Battery and Plugs. Any Suggest?
Well, I'm in the middle of replacing my alternator. As I'm doing this, I'm thinking of upgrading the battery, and maybe plugs.
Is there a recommended battery, or a good high input one to use. My system uses a noticeable amount of power, and I'd like to have the best unit I can get to keep it all powered. As well, for spark plugs, should I just go with the regualr stock ones, or are there good aftermarket ones to pick. There's a lot of choice out there, but I want to make sure I get the best units for my car, as well as not overpaying for junk. Thanks for any help. |

i myself am in the market for a new battery but i'm undecided which i should really go with but from readin' this post, i guess i should go with a yellowtop, right Krayzie? below is the link to the thread i posted about it. https://www.mazda3club.com/3rd-gen-protege-mazdaspeed-p5-mp3-26/optima-batteries-43524/ |
I just bought one from wal-mart, all the big boys like Consumer Reports and such has their batteries rated at the top especially for what you spend on them. Just my 2 cents though.

optima makes the best deep cycle battery. the RED battery is the sport compact battery however most people use the yellowtop because it's "faster"
|
i have a red top and works just fine, didn't get a yellow top because the said it wouldn't fit. but like the battery very much, lights don't dim as much anymore.

FWIW, I have the ngk zfr5f-11 long reach plugs installed, noticed no improvement in driveability or performance. I get some pinging when I use less than 89 octane mid-grade. I'd go with the stock ngks or densos. just my opinion.
