These are all good lightweight choices:
Deka motorsport AGM battery- 17 lbs $89
Odyssey PC680 AGM battery- 15 lbs $114
Shorai LFX36 Lithium Iron battery- 5 lbs- $300
You will have to fabricate a solid mount or battery strap and I recommend keeping an AGM on a battery maintainer designed to work with AGM batteries if the car sits for longer than 1 week. Porsche electronics draw current even when the car is off.
