Looks like a great kit...good quality parts.
What size cable are you running to the trunk?

That battery is a good size as well and plenty of CCA. How do you like the reserve time on that one with a RX-8? Is that enough for you?
That battery could also be used it's basically the same just a bit shorter and a bit less CCA and reserve time. The cable size will probably be 4AWG since it's plenty big enough for the job. It will be the same high quality tin plated copper marine wire we use for all the battery cable kits that will soon be for sale. The ground or negative cable will probably ground in the trunk on the strut tower where the spare tire holding bracket normally bolts up. The spare tire will not fit in the factory location if this relocation kit was used. I wanted what little weight the battery will weigh to be above the rear axle and centered. Of course we could offer variations of battery location if someone wanted to put the box somewhere else. This leaves you with most of the trunk for storage this way as well.
The cable size could be larger but there's no reason to have it larger unless your vehicle has some very large unfactory current demands.
