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.

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