I have the 93 ssei and was wondering what battery what work,i need something with lots of run time when the engine is off. Almost thinking of some kind of deep cycle.

Optima Red-Top. Don't use a deep-cycle for your main battery. If you want a backup battery for an audio setup that's where you want a deep-cycle.

Are they good in in -25 or colder?, i also use the radio for 4-5 hrs with out the the car running.

I agree with an Optima red top...

If you get a lead acid battery, go for 850-1000 Amps and 100-110 reserve capacity..

Just curious why you are listening to the radio that long? How often do you do that?

My optima red top worked no problem even in -40, I lived in Red Deer, and it got that cold quite often. As long as the car was plugged in, it was okay.

They're better in the cold than regular batteries, there's no water in the to freeze.
