Finally changed my 51r battery out
I finally got around to changing my 51r battery out for a 24f. I noticed one thing is that my gas pedal is much smoother operating. By that I mean before i would get these dead spots when pushing down on the pedal.. I would actually have to let up on the pedal and push down again... Seems to start better also, but the real test will come this winter. My dealer installed remote would never work when it was 10 degrees or below outside. I hope that changes for me in Connecticut here this winter. I only drive 5000 miles a year.. so I hope it gets charged up enough on 20-25 trips to the store and back.. so 40-50 minute drives on the shorter runs.. otherwise maybe was a waste of money. I drive a 2013 TSX sport wagon with Tech package.
Many people think i was foolish to do this since the engine only draws so much current to start .. but my factory battery was just 400 CCA where as this one is 775.. Having a deeper well to draw power from should help
Maybe if some people who have done this can chime in and let me know how it's been going for you with the upgrade. I would like to hear of your experance

I put the 24f in .. I did buy the Honda V6 box and the rods to tie it down. Also bought the Honda V6 top brace but that didn't fit. The holes were way off centered .. So I went to auto zone and bought a clamp and got that to work. Had to shave off the tops of the tie downs. I could post a picture of it?
