light weight small battery

hows it going everyone, i havent posted in a while. have been busy with work and also have been doing a bunch of stuff to the clk, i will post pictures soon. I'm looking for a light weight battery thats is possibly smaller than the oem bosch battery. reason for this, well i'm doing a custom tru dual exhast setup and i need to relocate my battery and also ive been doing some stuff to reduce the overall weight for track(summer time). any advise or direction would be appreciated.

Lots of the AMG guys use Brailles when shedding weight on the battery.

I have to look into it more too

Not really Jimmy. 12 volts is 12 volts .....doesnt matter where its coming from as long as it meets the specs required to do the job. Reducing weight is another story.
