Robert,

As I recall you were the first one to recommend Sharkwerks. Thanks.

But Alex and James stretched the truth and maybe even lied when I asked them if there was any downside to their mods. They said no. But there is a downside, even if it's temporary.

After driving the car yesterday, I went home and did my usual 5 mile run because I was pretty psyched up about the newfound power. So then I stay up past my bedtime. I finally go to bed and I can't get to sleep. DAMN! My mind keeps racing around and thinking about how strong the car felt going down my first highway onramp. I'm 43 and I feel like an 8 year old the night before I get to open all my presents on Christmas.

I didn't sleep at ALL last night. So don't be fooled... there is a downside to mods. I hope it's temporary. Does it get worse? Should I consult a doctor? Anybody else suffer from the same syndrome. HELP!

OK as promised here's DTMarsh's shiny-happy-Spanish engine (notice the sleeving). Also you can see the stock vs EVO K16 Sport headers and the AWE Exhaust under there....

Damnit sharkey, I decided I didn't want the headers, but those pics look awesome! What am I going to do? I guess I could have worse problems.
