Mustang battery upgrade – worth going AGM or just stick with standard?

So my 2016 Mustang GT has been cranking a bit slow the last few mornings and I think the battery is on its way out. I've been reading a bit about the different options and I'm trying to decide if I should just replace it with a standard battery or upgrade to an AGM. I know the standard factory spec for the 2012-2023 models is actually a 60Ah LN2, but I've seen people say that upgrading to an EFB or AGM can be a smarter move because the Mustang has a Battery Management System that can handle the charge profile of an AGM battery just fine, and it might even last longer with the start-stop features and all the electronics . I'm based in Sharjah and I'd rather take it to a place that knows these cars and won't just drop in any battery without doing the BMS reset. I've heard that with these cars, if you don't reset the battery management system after fitting a new one, the car might not charge it correctly and it'll die early . I'm looking for Mustang battery specialists in Industrial Area 3 with Expert experience who can supply the right battery and handle the coding properly. Has anyone else here upgraded their Mustang to an AGM and noticed a difference, or is it overkill for a daily driver?
