It is difficult to compare battery specs as there are at least three different ways/grades of measuring performance.
There is so much "badge engineeering" as well on batteries.
I would go to a proper trade outlet if I were you.
I always get the biggest that will actually fit in the space as well.
There are several different types of battery now such as glass mat, which is ideal for cars that get left with flat batteries if not used for the non show season!!
