Battery OPTIMA or Duracell
I had a yellow top that lasted me through 3 cars and over 12 years. I sold it with one of my cars. Those were the good ole days where they actually were decent.
ive got my early 2000's redtop it still sits at 12 but it gets alarmingly hot when in use, best battery ever, over 10 cars
Agree with all that has been said! My battery crapped out on my 2020 outback recently. Immediately put in a non-OEM brand. Optima to be specific. Couldn\u2019t be happier.
I have a 2014 brz and power wise the only thing I've changed is an optima red top battery when my orm battery died. It does have a out twice the cca as the stock battery so maybe it helps.
The nice people at Optima would love to hear from you.
Duracell flooded lead acid would be a good choice and around $200.
I run the red top. I haven't noticed any issues except it doesn't fit the stock tray.
I got stuck getting an optima for my truck because the one that was in it literally exploded.
10 years ago, in Florida, I bought the red top battery for my F250 diesel. It blew up under the hood and sprayed battery juice on everything. It was only a few months old. Discount Auto replaced it for free under warranty. But I wouldn't buy another red top.
20 years ago optima was good. Now its 300 dollars for a 50 dollar battery. Used to get them super cheap as a jci employee and they would last made in Colorado but the quality control has been gone for decades.
