    just let me know when its good for you to meet up. Mine isnt the fastest one but it gets the job done for now. Later on im going to upgrade it to a much faster one.

    Gene (projectwidow) did it all himself, his interior looks awesome with all the work he's done. i still am amazed he did it by himself cause im wanting to say he didnt have previous experience with it before his car.

    its really better to use touchscreen... you can pick one up for about 300-400 dollars. you could probably get a carputer going for a starting price of about 750 including teh screen, and build it up from there. you can turn it into a gps/ point to point direction/map, game consol, mp3 storage, radio, rearview mirror, fuel management, etc.. you just have to buy the hardware to get the extras working.

    that was another reason for getting it. After i upgrade this system it will have a bigger harddrive and more memory so it works faster. Then im going to load gps on it, and probably get a program like E-manage or ECU control. That way I can tune while in the car.
