I knew I should have done my homework over the weekend. My complete stage one came today and when I got home all I could do is take it all out of the box and drool, because I have too frickin' much homework to do for my class tomorrow night. And because I have class tomorrow night AND Wednesday night, I can't start tinkering with it until Thursday night! But that will not be enough time to finish before driving to work Friday morning. Then Friday night we are having a big party for my sister in-law. I won't really be able to touch it until Saturday. It is like torture. Moderators: while you are deleting this lame thread, could you try deleting my classwork as well? Hey Kartboy (Tom), how does Saturday morning work for you for helping a brother out with an install?

That was my plan for tonight actually, but it is not going to happen. Hey MP5, I've noticed your posts have been getting more and more technical lately. You seem to be on a steep tuning learning curve.

By the way MP5 and other Vishnu customers, do you recall what I need to install my exhaust? gaskets, hangers, nuts and bolts, etc. I think I remember reading that I can just reuse the stock stuff, right? I figure if I wait until the weekend for the xede and cam gears, at least I can have the bulky stuff out of the way.

To take the stocker off just a 12mm box wrench and a 12mm socket and a pipe wrench or 02 socket and liquid wrench and jack stands w/ jack. The vishnu can be installed with the 12mm and your thumb trick race clips. Should be a 45 min jobber with the stock exhaust being the longest to take off

Hey Wide Open Throttle,
When I used to be a teacher and I was feeling lazy, I would assign lots of dumb questions and make students look up the answers in their textbook. I'm almost done with my master's degree and I have a professor like that, who assigns busywork. I have been working non stop since about 5:30 on this dumb bookwork. I reward myself after answering a few questions by allowing myself to post a thread or send a reply on Evom. I'm also on about my third or fourth miller lite. I still have about an hour of work left to finish, so no Xede tonight. F@#%.
