This weekend I am doing a custom install in a Porche. It is one of Dan's friends from church. It will be a fiberglass ported enclosure for his Brahma 10 on one side, and a matching fiberglass cover on the other side covering the amp rack. The fiberglass will be covered in factory vinyl. The owner tells me that his car will be in a magazine coming up, so I'm really excited.

But then today talking to one of Dan's partners, he wants me to do a custom install in both his Porche's. He has two matching, one for him and one for his girlfriend. I will probably do a single Koda 10 in each car, and koda's in kick pannels.

I will take pictures throughout the whole process. I will also try to get specs on the cars for those who want them. Here's what Dan said about one of them on AVVA: "It's a Porsche 944S4 with a full race prep engine. One of only 300 made. Grey, with a black interior." The difference is that it is now painted blue. The other one is red and also a 944. I don't know if they are completely identical.

Anyway, I'm excited about it and just wanted to share. I never thought when coming up here I would be doing high-end installs in high-end vehicles.

Sure. That would be fun to have you come by. Then I would have someone to take pictures when my hands are sticky.

I will be doing the first one this weekend, and possibly next weekend if needed. The other two I'm not sure about timeframe. Hopefully it will be soon though.

Say, you wouldn't happen to be installing this is UT, would you? Of course after it's installed, you have to drive the car to make sure the subs work and sound good at high speed, during heavy cornering, etc...

I knew there was something wrong, but couldn't figure out what. For some reason it didn't sound right with the added "s" either. I guess I better be careful though before someone mistakes me for Michael. :P

That is too bad. I will try to let you know when I do the other two. Maybe you could come down then.
