Speed & Sound: Colorado Speed

In the world of motorsport, the rulebook often dictates a fairly predictable field of vehicles to compete on the most equal of terms possible. However, this often means that the field is made up of vehicles very similar in design…

Plugged In: Marine Speakers and Accessories

temp

Last month, we took a look at marine electronics including head units and amplifiers. It was a good primer to get into this cool mobile electronics category, but it’s also only half the story. I have said a million times – if you don’t have good speakers, all the expensive electronics in the world…

One Tight Little Package

We here in Canada have had very little exposure to the Scion brand. In short, Scion has been a very successful and ingenious form of platform engineering that sees Toyota products given funky new body designs and sold for an extremely competitive price…

Performance: Swaying Control

temp

If you remember back when we did our initial testing of the Volvo 850, the massive amount of body lean was nearly enough to make me seasick. In a hard right-hand corner, the driver’s-side of the front bumper was nearly buried into the tarmac, while the rear passenger-side tire was lifted up into the air…

Speed & Sound: Blue Bomber

The Ford Mustang is arguably one of the most popular muscle cars out there. Almost every generation of the car has its own huge following, and with the insane number of companies that make aftermarket parts for them, it’s easy to make them fast for not too much money…

Speed & Sound: Canadian Super Car

When you hear the term Canadian Super Car, it does not exactly roll off the tongue; it seems as unlikely as oil and water mixing. Having written about the Pléthore LC-750 in an article that featured the top-ten most powerful cars in the world, the very same article that was posted on Driving.ca…

Steve Colombe of Team OverDosed Performance set out to build a show car but he didn’t want to build the typical ‘all show and no go’ show car. So, besides the usual over-the-top sound system and esthetic modifications, Steve wanted to do something special in the engine department…

Performance: Head Freeze

If you’ve been following this section, you’ll no doubt notice the absence of a Volvo 850 station wagon as the lead photo. Well, just as we’re about to get into the fun bit of the equation, Canadian Customs put a grinding halt to our little project, figuring who in his right mind would import performance parts…

Plugged In: Marine Electronics

temp

I’ll be straight up about this issue of Plugged In – we aren’t going to talk about anything related to cars. When I started writing Plugged In, it was my goal to never beat any single topic to death, and to expose the readers of RPM to as many diverse aspects of the mobile electronics industry…

Speed & Sound: Re-Incarnated!

temp

Many believe in the doctrine of rebirth; that the soul can return into a new body. Perhaps as a plant, maybe a goat, or in this case, a clean 1993 BMW 325is – simply, the belief that one’s energy never really dies. So when Rob Leetch, owner of Tunerworks Performance Inc. based in Calgary, Canada…
