Light weight battery for me?

I'm looking at the speed factory kit
http://ft86speedfactory.com/ft-86-sp...y-kit-594.html

I live in Oregon so ill see some cold and probably a week or 2 of snow but nothing "extreme"
I do however run a sub for dd it's a single 10 with a 1000w peak 2ohm amp.

Can this battery handle it or should I stick with Oem. I know having a sub is counter productive in shedding weight but maybe with a light weight battery it will help better weight dist

Of course when I make serious runs I take my sub out but it's my dd and I have a long commute. So I like to have my tunes.

Thank you again for any help you provide!
Please don't flame me I only really know about suspension.

I agree, up your alternator before your battery.
