except for the Thomas Knight design, but it's just stupid not to have a proper mechanical system that works all the time, when you want it.

That's what I figured. They all look like some quick clamshell pack from a magazine.

Don't plan to. Just plan (short term) go with the CAI, then ported plenum, then save up and maybe buy LX9 heads and LIM as I go, then get the heads and LIM ported just before tax time, and then when I rebuild, just use the LX9 parts on the rebuild.
That's my plan. The CAI might even be ordered this week or next, installed same day it arrives.
If I wanted to rice it out (at least the way they do it around here), I would get it lowered, a different colored hood, 3 different colored doors, a flat black trunk lid, huge rims with paper thin lopros that I need to cut out the fenderwells, the brightest HIDs available, almost illegal tint, and a fart can muffler.
Sad part is, that is not an exaggeration. I plan to keep mine clean and straight up stock looking, with a few engine mods.
