Car Audio & Electronics Magazine - Radical!

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

I haven’t picked up a copy yet, but the March issue of Car Audio & Electronics has started arriving to subscribers and at retail locations (I’ll never quite understand why magazines put issues out one month ahead of the published month, but I digress). Featured inside is an in-depth article on the Car Audio Trifecta winning 300M Project and the installers who created and supported it throughout the show season this year - Matt Turner (yours truly), Randy Lively, Chris McEntyre and Billy Brown. I’m not 100% sure what the text content is, as I haven’t read the copy yet, but my good friend and super ultra mega talented photographer Ryan Flynn is responsible for somehow making myself, Randy and …

300M Project - Do the D&*n Thing…

Tuesday, November 7th, 2006

This year, the 300M Project has been all around the country with its owner displaying the intricate features, design attributes and build quality that have made it such a success this show season. I’ve lost count at this point, but the owner has had to make a special place in his garage to put all the first place trophies - one from every show he’s been to with the car. One of these wins was at a SEMA event in Pennsylvania earlier this year, where the 300M won a chance to compete against the nation’s best show cars in the Car Audio Trifecta. Well, the finals were held this past week at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, and the …

2point5 Charger SRT8 Project - Old News?

Friday, October 20th, 2006

So this vehicle has been done for about four months, and has already been featured in Car Audio & Electronics magazine (it is a CA&E, Eclipse, Davin Wheels and 2point5-sponsored project), but I checked the site stats the other day, and it would appear that tunertricks is still alive and well, so I thought I’d put some photos up for those of you who may not have picked up the magazine…The theme and purpose of this project was to update certain technology features of the Charger, improve the sound staging, imaging, quality and overall output as well as to make subtle changes to the interior and trunk that didn’t call too much attention to themselves unless you knew changes had …

GTi MacMini in Make: Magazine vol.3

Tuesday, July 26th, 2005

I’ve really been anticipating this moment, and it’s finally here (although the website says that retail copies of this issue are not yet available). Make:, a relatively new publication from O’Reilly, has a feature article on the GTi Mac Mini installation in my own vehicle that I posted on multiple times in March and April. Thanks to P. Torrone for picking up the story and for keeping in touch with me as it progressed. I really appreciate the exposure! I can’t wait to get my hands on a hard copy of this issue. If you haven’t seen this magazine yet, you should really check it out regardless, as it’s actually a quarterly publication that is more like a softcover book …
