there's no harm doing so. but it will work at the optimum when u change the alternator as well. becoz the present alternator will only recharge according to standard spec battery ie 55 and not 70.

easier starting though as it is more powerful and capable to withstand heavy usage (like driving night time with heavy rain and audio full blast).

in my case
1. Wira 1.6A
2. EFI
3. mix driving of 4-5,000km monthly
4. battery type - standard size korean brand.
5. maintenance free - never top up
7. 90/100W bulbs, 600W amplifier

battery used fo about 11 month and still counting. went flat twice (play radio during parking for hours) but after jumped-start ok until now.
