Question Battery size...

Well... the battery has finally given up on the Type R... I've been putting it off and off but over the last 2 weeks its has a good charge off the car and 2 jump starts... enough is enough...

I need a battery the same in size but could do with something will alittle more power...? I've been told by one place it has the biggest AH on it for the size of the battery...
I could go alittle bigger but could end up running into problems with the FMIC pipe touching the live terminal on the battery...!!!



Any suggestions... don't was a really expensive battery, suppose a budget of upto £100 quid for the right one... although a direct replacement for whats on the car only comes in at £60 quid which will probabley do the job fine...?

Battery that is fitted at the moment is a 12V 60AH ( 48AH )
RC100MINS
DIN250A
Dimensions of the battery are:- 16.5 cm x 22.5cm ... as said really want something the same in size but with alittle more power... due to increase in engine capacity and the I.C.E in the car...
