I have a VR6 swap that Sal at S&P did for me and we used an Optima Red Top.
I've had an Optima battery for several years. Still cranks my G20 van as if were brand new.????
I run optimas because of the extreme temps here. Can be -40 outside and over 120 in the summers. They've been great for my old 454 powered truck.
I’ve had mine in for about 3 or four years. The only thing I’ve noticed is I don’t have to change my battery every year now.
I had an Optima battery in my 2006 WRX for about 7 or 8 years before deciding to replace it with another Opitima battery. I ran that second Optima battery for about 5 or 6 years before trading in the vehicle towards a 2021 WRX. The OEM battery may end up turning over just fine when the temperature is -20F'ish, but Optima batteries have never let me down in the past.
Bought the Optima, not yet installed. Have had good luck with them, 5 yrs or more each,
I always liked Optimas, but I bought mine 2-4 years ago. I heard the quality has gone down but haven’t checked myself.
I have a 2019 Subaru outback. The battery dies every two months and I am left stranded.
The OEM battery sucks I upgraded mine to an AGM with an extra 100 or so CCA. A better battery will also let your auto start stop last longer. Stock battery would never last a stop light for while under load new battery gives me a lot more time even under load.
I went through two of them in a season in my trail Jeep. I think years ago they were great batteries and the quality was there but now it’s just a brand name but junk product.
