I need help finding a muffler for my new exhaust.
As for the other stuff...
7 Inch touch screen, preferably a fold out or something I can hide.
Wifi Music Downloads.
XM. is this even possible, or would I have to do the whole XM Receiver and FM Modulator?
Movies.
GPS/Navigation (google maps? I do have a windows mobile 6 phone BTW, with Edge speeds.)
DVD, possibly in dash, so I can easily change disks.
Bluetooth, so I can use my BT keyboard if I want.
I think that's about it. I'd like to be able to hook it up to all of the screens in the car (I will be doing some visor screens and have one in each headrest).

an xm direct module, plus read this

the gps through the phone im not sure about, you'd have to read into that. the rest is pretty straightforward though. if you can add it to a regular computer you can do it to this.
to answer the questions i missed above...
java, got the brake lines from sfr. i think they are a bit cheaper from the dealer though.
majik, screen just has the monitor housing bondo'd to the radio surround. then i just put the screen back together with its housing. i need to fix it up a bit though, i whipped that thing out in a day when it really should have taken 4 or 5 days to make perfect.

damnit!!! your tiburon is sick!! i can say i'll be at least halfway to your status when i get the interior done. just waiting for the led's to come in now...
i see you took the spoiler off, it looks excellent! i don't know why hyundai had that spoiler when it had a lip molded into the hatch. your exhaust sounds exactly like my sister's. i don't know how you got that growl, i thought it had a lot to do with the headers. rims look awesome! i really think you could win cotm anytime you want you just know you'll win so why bother hahah.
you need to see my car sometime, perhaps on campus or something. i really want to paint my hood already but i quit working to go to school so red/black it is.

shitty thing happened, i got pulled over by a cop near campus and i guess when he didnt find a drunk kid behind the wheel he felt the need to give me something, so fix it ticket it was.
but it was holding up great, and i really think it would last forever. you can get them from summit racing, make sure you get a lap joint set if you have pipes that fit into each other, and a butt joint set if the pipes are exactly the same diameter.

^that's stupid. usually cops here are cool, unless it's the dumb troopers. i got my exhaust welded shut, i think if you know it's the best possible setup and you spend that extra time preparing everything and figuring out if that's the way it's going to work and don't have to touch it ever again, you should get it welded just to avoid rust, corrosion from salt, and it shaking loose.
corrosion from salt ain't happening here in FL, rust i can deal with its not a big deal, and it seems to seal well. i think this is better to test out the exhaust before you commit to have it welded.

h yeah, i forgot to give you props for a very nice set up man.

You need to show us what you can do with your carPC. Explain everything. You promissed a long time ago. I don't have much experience. I'd like to learn.
