If the Varta you have now is fairly new, keep it and add the Kinetik as a secondary (trunk) battery.

Big 3 upgrade and a heavy 0 gauge run of wire front to back.

Thanks for your advice

I don't know how new it is but I have to upgrade as A week of not starting my car left the battery dead and the only thing that it powered up was the alarm system so the batt has to be upgraded.

Kinetik is out of my price range that's why i wanted to go with varta..

On a side note, i see optima yellow tops charge quite fast, i wanted to know, which charges faster between optima YT, Kinetik and XS Power?
