What battery is that then? An optima?
You might be best off buying a good quality starter battery for the engine bay, then gettin something like a stinger 2nd battery with a split charge relay for the boot.
CAD have got an offer on them at the mo, for like £70!

I very much doubt that one battery will power the whole car system, as well as 2.5kw!!
You're gonna get a fair bit of voltage drop i'd have thought! Voltage drop = Less power for amp = less watts! 
You want to be getting as close as you can to 14.4 volts, even when its on full load, otherwise you be getting a few hundred RMS less than the stated figures!

Yup, looks like the big three to me mate!
Nice to see you've uprated the battery terminals too! It all makes a difference!
What car is that though? Cus its definitely not a VTR! Looks like something with 2 cams! Lol
You wanna get something like an optima yelow top up front, then just get one of those small CAD batteries on a S.C.R! I think that would be sufficient tbh! As long as you consistently use 0 gauge cabling!
