Looks good! Don't delete the muffler. Loud cars with little motors suck.

hmm well I think it sounds okay, but if I get exhaust I'll get the mpx cat back. sounds so beautiful. I'm gonna try to get down to the cities this weekend, devin is checking if the guy from the dealer will be working so I can install stage 1 and get it flashed by him. do my taxes and some freelance work. See if I get anything back from taxes and get my downpipe.

What time on Saturday and which dealer again? I have someone coming to look at my MSR 045's (and hopefully actually buy them)...plus I have to watch my son as my wife is working 5AM to 11AM, but I can take him along. And I have to deliver pizza at 5PM...so it better be between noon and 4PM sometime.

I have a doctor's appointment at 2:10 just so I can get a note saying I'm OK to go back to work at Culligan...then I work 2nd shift tonight as I've been home sick since Tuesday. Our GM is a big ******* ******* and even though I was safe to work Monday, he thinks maybe I was actually contagious still....so when I went home sick on Tuesday, he got all paranoid.

My boss and co-workers know I'm fine and could care less, but because of the GM, NO, can't just go back to work (otherwise I would've worked a normal day today 7-3:30).

OK, so I have a nice list of things to install now...

I just picked up a Pacesetter header on here (for the 2.2 with 1.5" primaries). Just paid for it a little while ago.

I have my TTR engine and tranny mounts that are on their way and should be here fairly soon.

I'm hoping the Pedders will be on their way sometime in the next week.

I've got the SS/TC struts and shocks.

I picked up a can from Welle yesterday of spray paint in Ultra Silver Metallic...going to be re-doing my front bowtie in USM...I'm going to paint the part that came chrome in black to separate the silver bowtie from the silver crossmember.

I'm going to spray my grille in black as well.

I have the DP and exhaust to install.

I need to order an SCE copper exhaust mani gasket...JEGS has them for $23 shipped compared to about $20-23 plus shipping everywhere else.

If I sell the MSR 045's on Saturday, then I'll have the exhaust installed when I receive the header and order the gasket. I'm thinking depending on money, I may go ahead and get my tune as well. Since I am just looking for the MPG's for right now.

Once I get the suspension components installed and get the exhaust and tune, I should be very happy for quite some time.

Wish I could keep the wheels, but I'll never be able to afford tires with wanting all this other stuff done first. I probably wouldn't have tires until next summer at the earliest. Of course, if they don't sell, then I hold on to them a while longer and I wait to get my exhaust and everything done.

sick with what? **** I just got a cold sunday night...so ive been straight sick since Jan 1st...this is so bs I never get sick.

I think devin was saying between 8am-12pm (noon) Saturday at Friendly Fridley dealer. Devin said he would go, Jeff may come. I'm on a time crunch that day as well so the earlier the better, I can hang out for a bit then I have clients to see and get back to duluth for a bday party I planned for a friend.

I got pinkeye from my son on Saturday...I also wound up with strep throat some how....I've been on meds since Saturday and I'm pretty much fine...just been waiting around for a dr's appointment to OK me to "go back to a food production plant" as my GM put it...the note I get has to state I'm OK to go back to a "food production" plant...I mean seriously...come on....what's the difference between that and a note saying I can go back to work and am not contagious?

I got strep twice this year so far! haha so it must be making its way around bad this year. Ya after 24hours on antibiotics you should be fine to work. I took an extra day just to rest but I would of worked otherwise. But if you work in a "food production plant" then they may be much more tight on sickness.

Try to bring hand sanitizer with you and use it often, use lotion when needed if the sanitizer starts to dry out your hands. IMO

Spring brings out a lot of germs and people from hibernation.
