And in this corner......
Hi, y'all. I'm Greg from Denver. I'm into bracket racing and inventing gadgets for the car (B888), a couple of which actually work. Most of them didn't (ever watch Tim Allen?). Looks like you have a great site here. Into old-school electronics and speaker building (sorry, not automotive systems), spending creative energy on the car. Like most people, I live paycheck to paycheck, so the mods come slow.

The hood scoop is functional, held on with 2 wing nuts, can be removed in two minutes. Mostly it stays off in the Winter.
The boost gauge is mounted on the steering column in a clear acrylic tube, with a red LED that makes the edges glow slightly. Actually, most people don't like it, but it's different.
I'll try to post some other stuff in the Showcase section. Nothing on the car is "show quality" by any means, though

WELCOME
I like people who need to make stuff because :
A: broke like me and have to
B: enjoy the fact that they made it and didn't buy it
C: A and B (this is me )
i like the boost gauge very cool. would look awsome with these

It's all relative They tell me my first word was "car," and back in the day, that was understandable, because, as you can see,
That, ladies and gents, was a CARRR!
