Added the Cold Air Intake. It's made with a plastic downspout (which I painted black,) clothes dryer hose and electrical tape.





I'm not sure how well it aids fuel economy if at all, but the air intake temperature went down much quicker after hill climbs than before.

I also had the front tires at 65 this time since my lower back was bothering me from riding this car, but that may have not been caused entirely from the tire pressure; I later found I had the seat adjusted oddly.
