My car chugged trying to start the past few days and that's with a bigger battery. As long as I could be ok with a smaller one, I'd be interested in this setup.

it's not the size of the battery that matters, it's the CCAs. This battery has higher CCAs than our stock battery does, so I wouldn't worry too much.

Got the can back today. We will have battery specs pricing and group buy pricing. Working out the final cost as the production pieces will be CNC laser cut and bent.

Some more detailed shots of the can and vents. We have a few more color options as far as washers go too

Really slick gentlemen. Throw a little shorai lithium in there and you're set for a ton less weight.
