Project Name: Schitzoprenia

Goal: To create a car with a Jeckell and Hyde-like setup. Basically, a car with two different and distinct operating personalities. One, a stock-like beige box commuter with a nice quiet stereo. the other, a screamin' pocket rocket with a kick-butt audio setup. How will i do it? you'll see...
Current Engine/Performance Mods: removed intake resonator.
Planned Engine/Performance Mods: extensive.
Current Stereo: stock HU with cassette-to-diskman adapter, Radioshack 6x9 3-ways in the back and stock 6 1/2 door speakers
