Battery help

I'm stuck at a parts store and I can't find the thread about what battery I should get for my 97 986. I read somewhere that the one in the catalog is not the best one. any help in the next half hour would be appreciated.

Group 48 or group 94R. I bought an AGM Exide Edge 94R for the harsh winters we have here.
