Sweet!
I'm very intelligent, but I mask it by doing stupid stuff.

Riding with Dave will definately raise your addrenilan level for sure.   He can drive these cars.  I'm sure he showed you some of the things your car could do :)

Hell yes he did!!  and we went on a very short ride...LOL

Really nice setup.  Where does the intake lead to--is it ported downward or connected in some way to the front vents?

Thanks!  They are just pointed downward about 8-10 inches.  I would like to have them hook up o a vent, But I think ours are a little small for the air they suck in.

That looks fantastic.  The interior ties together very nicely, and the trunk looks spectacular.  I love what you did with the intake...it's functional and it looks mean as hell.  I think if I had a choice of any car on this forum, it would be yours.  Well done!

The interior looks really nice. How much did it cost to do the entire interior?

The whole interior, less the trunk was about $4500.  That includes the seats, which most people wouldn't get.  I also changed the cockpit carpet to red which was $400.  If you just did the doors, dash etc, except the seats, it could be done for much less.

But you have the nicest interior found in a Kappa by far.  Unique and very professional.  Bravo!

LD,  I won't be at Deals Gap this year.  I have to go on a business trip that same weekend.  There's always next year.
