Some recent upgrades/ repairs
Besides the following repairs/upgrades, I also recently gutted my airbox.
Here's a good pic of the "guts" form my airbox. You can probably guess that all of this extra plastic is very restrictive.

And I did put in a new air filter, just didn't take a pic of it. Just a plain ol $6 Purolator from Advance Auto. I wanted to do a K&N, but the budget didn't allow it.

After replacing all of this, the car still wasn't acting right. The next day a coil was replaced(free part and labor thanks to the father-in-law) and that has solved most of the problem. Now I just need to get the altenator rebuilt and get an alignment. Oh yeah, and I need to get my winter tires (Green DIamonds) off and put new summer ones on. Then all of the mechanical stuff will be taken care of. I hope!
Then the fun stuff. Starting with a new paint job and a new exhaust set up.
