No, 950 cranking amps is
not too much.
How much do they charge now for the H8 battery? Just curious because they also have a 49 class size battery that they "conveniently" don't have listed for many BMW models....the Duralast 49DL...which usually runs around $100 with core charge deducted. Interestingly, the 49DL may have slightly higher specs,yet costs less. The free replacement warranty has 1 less year but it does have a 5 year pro rated warranty that kicks in afterwards.
Warning: to those who don't know...ALWAYS vent our battery when it is enclosed!!!
(Duralast 49DL install in my e38)
