That noticeably helped.
I initially was going to run larger gauge cables then thought why remove the ones already there,so I just run the new ones right along side, it works, was easier, and is an over kill that hurts nothing.

Did you try both of those at the same time? Curious if one or the other made the bigger difference.

As much as (I think mostly uninformed) folks like to bag on the KT17, those things pop right off even when it's -10 out. Definitely an easier to start engine than the Mags.

One thing CCC did right in the cyclops was going to the automotive style battery. That helps a good deal, IMO.
