Yes, get the stage 1. The OEM k20a one that I have has a smaller clutch disc and the pressure plate seems softer than OEM k24a.

Still on the original one.Honda service did their test on mine yesterday and said it is just above "fail".HA won't replace it till their test comes up fail.Now my car is over 2 yrs.old i'll have to pay 50% of the cost of replacement battery.HA gives only 2 yrs. warranty on the OEM battery then 2-3 yrs.50%:thumbdwn:

Same thing happened with my last car,it had sound upgrade as well.Battery lasted approx.2.5 yrs.I'll just get one with higher CCA and i'll be right again.Anyone here recommend a good brand and/or place to buy a new battery from?BTW i'm in Sydney.Pricing as well please.

If I was going to upgrade, Id go for something like an odyssey or optima yellow top battery.

I agree,i just don't want to spend $300+for a battery for a car that i'll only be keeping for another 2 yrs.

yeah, should be able to pick em up for $250, maybe less if you look around.

I think its the optima D51 yellow top / Odyssey 800that is the replacement one for the euro.

Those supercharge gold MF55's are only about $100!
