Sweet car and nice install!
Not too much of a work log so much as pictures of what I have done to give others ideas, or answer questions.
Carpc is a zotac ionitx-L-E ssd hard drive fast boot/os and a platter drive external for storage.
Carpc and 5ch amp actually sit on the sub box, no probs at all with the platter drive.
System does 5.1 surround and uses SRS audio sandbox as the driver to do speaker fill.
Had to mount the 8" lilliput hdmi LCD into a 2din, and had a guy off evolutionm forums custom fab the hvac relocation.
Gutted out the dash clock and installed a Valentine1 radar detector remote display to have it a bit stealthy.
Carpc power button kinda stealthy right above the dimmer knob.
Custom trunk board so I can still get to the spare tire.
Post if you have any question or comments.

Sweet car and nice install!
Can you post a bit more information?
I ask because I have a IX SE and I would love to do a setup like this.
Also, do you have any of these features built in?
GPS
Evoscan logging/Gauge displays/temps etc etc
HDradio
DVD payback(just curious
How much did the HVAC unit cost? I have seen a few on EvoM, but the ones lately are the orbitals and really ugly compared to the custom job you received.
Ya I don't mind answering questions, I will try to give you more information on your questions.
GPS - I use Globalsat - BU-353 receiver and Garmin Mobile PC in centrafuse
Evoscan/gauges/etc - No evoscan im not really a tuner plus the engine is so well known I will probably end up just doing a mail in flash tune with dynoflash.com. I run a glowshift triple pod a-pillar with prosport gauges electric-boost/oil temp/oil press via a prosport oil sandwich adapter which does NOT leak like some people complain on forums. Also I had to dremel off some of the plastic guard stuff under the car to get it to fit.
HDradio- I run the mp3car boomzbox hd, works great and super easy install compared to other solutions. It is kinda pricey but then again you can just plug your factory antenna in wire up some power and your done.
DVD playback- I do not have any dvd drives in the car. Pretty much if I want video its going to be avi, mkv, mp4, etc files which play smooth on my onboard nvidia graphics using video codecs that take advantage of dxva.
HVAC- This hvac relocation kit was made by a member on the evolutionm forums. There are around 2-3 people on there that make them. Mine was made by cyanide but I hear bruce988jl is also good. I think it was a little under $200 for it and I sent him both parts to be cut and combined.
Ya ill try and get some more pictures up of gps location, wifi antennas, etc
If you have other questions feel free to ask.
