Small size battery

I'm looking for small size battery for my EVO.
Did anyone know where I can get the small battery ?
If it better capacity should be better.
Thanks

I wouldn't waste my money on either of these kits. You can save a lot by getting the parts separate.

^^ Eh, no...buy one of those odyssey batterys, the only problem is you need a mount for it, I think somone was able to use the stock tray but not sure how that worked. I'm still searching for how im gonna do it.

Sonic, I have the Honda battery in mine and it works great. Never stalled in the winter and only half the size of the Mitsu battery.

Battery

I used a battery from Autozone... Size is a 26R, it is $49.95, it has more CCA than stock, it is 1" shorter in height and 1" shorter in length, the width is the same. It has a 2yr replacement and 84 months pro rated warranty.

Pictures can be found on this thread (post #45):
