How about the BMW idea: a charging system that works like an alternator off of rotating mass of the brakes. Apparently there are no parasitic losses.

A form fitted piece that goes over the area people paint for the CETA bumper that you just double-tape on.

i had a pretty sick idea for a supercharger but it used a centrifigul style impeller... actually 2... but they have patents for those already, ill just have to check. its pretty cool.
im still greatly considering the targa top idea, but can someone tell me what it will do to the strength of the cars frame?

Night Rider led hood kit, David Hasselhoff Cut away for passenger seat, talking computer, and sweet *** mullet extensions for hair. J/K I don't know maybe a door panel for the birds that does not crack or nice targa kit like mentioned earlier. I'm guessing sub frame connectors would make the frame strong enough for a targa.

The telescoping steering would be nice, but probably easier and more important would be to shift the tilt steering down half a notch. Many times I've tried to find the in between notch. I'm going to look at my parts manual to see how that works. Maybe an aftermarket tilt wheel notch plate.

Dude, if you could perfect a valve actuator that was 100% electronically controlled, lightning fast, extremely accurate, and dependable, you would change automotive history!
Think about it, no cam, a seperate valve actuator (think fuel injector) at each valve. Electronically, ie; infinitely variable on the fly valve events. A car could have any displacement and different programs for economy, power, towing, etc forever.
The duration, lift, and timing of the valve could change constantly with the setting, load, throttle position, rpm, fuel, etc. No more cam trade offs, no more topend horsepower or low end torque decisions. You can have it all!
We have the computers and electronics and brains to pull it off. The only thing standing in the way is the accuracy, speed, size, and dependability of the actuators themselves.

I'm sure someone somewhere is hard at work on it (probably bosch) but I would love to see the day this come to reality.
