I just read a Q&A in Super Street Magazine and someone was looking at a lightweight with 200 cca. They answered that a stock Civic needs about 400 cca.

But it's all about climate and conditions, isn't it?

I read that question too. It does depend on where you live and how you store/park your car. If you have a garage and it doesn't drop below 30 you should be ok. My car is in the garage but i have a small heater in there that I keep at 65.

Now if you park your car outside that's different.

I can't find it any cheaper than ebay. I've had my oddessy for over a yr, and have had no problems. My car stays in the garage, and is driven 1 or 2 days a week. I have 2 12's, and a 450W amp if you care.
