i guess it's not really size i'm looking for then, i guess what i'm asking is do i get the D31, D34/78, D35. D51, D51R?

I did a search and found a few people saying get the D34/78 and a couple others saying to get the D51

can someone clarify?

I'm doing this battery upgrade mainly b/c of stereo system, that's why I have decided upon yellow.

The 51R is the small battery used if you go with the Supercharger. If you're in stock form, I think the RED75/35 is a better alternative.

Go for the 34/78, make sure it comes with the spacer since the battery sits short. Add the spacer and replace the battery as usual. Works nicely.

Do you have the Optima as well? if so, which one? and where did you order it/pick it up from?

34/78 and yes make sure to get the spacer. Check Costco or AutoZone.
