Default A long day came to a good end!!

What started out as a day from heck, resulting in 9.5hrs in the Emergency room on my bday waiting on results of a possible brain aneurism, I left the hospital sore, after what seemed to be crapload of bloodwork (which I hate) and a CT scan, more blood work, I finally left all woozie, but I have to go back for an MRI .... woohoooo

I got home to the mail and noted most of parts had come in, so that was positive;

JBA Shorty Headers
BT Tech Oil Catch Can w/ hoses
BT Nose Badge
Colgan Cutome Bra w/ mirror covers

just waiting on my sequential tail lights to show up

I did manage to get my factory spoiler installed Wednesday.... car is comin along, right now I'm focussed on the car to distract me, and well with a baby arriving ANY day now, stress has been a wee bit elevated.... so while my wife rests today, i'm spending a little "me" time in the garage getting the headers installed.

Sounds like a good idea to get your mind off everything else. BTW I hope all the medical stuff comes out great for you!

thanks me too, stress is a bit down knowing the CT scan didn't see any large masses, the MRI will determine if and what small issues are present.

last head MRI i had the Dr said I didn't find anything and my wife yelled out "i coulda told you that without an MRI" LOLOLOLOL.

ah it is what it is, nothing I can do to change genetics, getting the headers done today, and my sequentials should be waiting for me when I get home.

canadiancanuck sorry to hear about the medical emergency. You are in my prayers and I hope you get good news. Let us know how the headers turn out and what you think about the performance improvement. Good luck.

canadiancanuck, I feel your pain. Back in October, I had a surprise one morning when I found myself in a similar state as Elvis's last ones. My heart was pounding irregularly and I was having some frightening dreams between consciousness. I was afraid I was going to die. The scary thing is I'm only in my mid-20s and frankly, I'm not in bad shape either and I don't even do drugs or drink or anything like that. The doctor never had a solid answer for me on that other than I must have overworked myself and had too much caffiene the day before.

WOW, this must be their standard answer. same exact response i got
a few years ago from the cardiologist but my primary care Doc after doing
an EKG in office gave me some nitro afterwards until i could see the specialist.
