wot is the deal with movin your battery then lads?

Two things:
1.) Better weight distribution (front to back).
2.) More room in the engine bay.

So what exactly is the difference between the yellow top and the red top Optimas?

2 more reasons:

1. Longer battery life (heat of engine bay kills batteries)
2. Security (For people who have alarms, thieves tend to pop hood to cut battery cable to kill the siren/alarm.)
