Not to much changed as far as appearance goes. Different grille and painted the side mirrors. Mostly maintenance was done replaced control arms, tie rod ends, new tires, alignment, replace all belts, new cap, rotor, spark plugs, wires and waterpump

Engine now looks like this:
ECU chip from Techtonics tuning.

All in all I am very happy with how it turned out. Can definitely feel a lot more power out of it. Now to pay off school loans and then transmission work and possible turbo?

Oh yea and the rusted hood sits out back waiting for winter haha.
