Default ARGHHHHH!!!

Sorry guys. Need to vent. Just went I thought the day was going well too... Finally got the SS hose to fit right and it shows no leaks for my oil feed to my supercharger. Basically havent driven my car since Ive been waiting for that hose to fix the dang leak. So coming home from dinner, I hear a clanging. Pull over and low and behold Im missing an exhaust tip and the pipe right before the tip on my driver side. Drive back and pick up the pieces and the tip is mangled. The other pipe is good though. Pisses me off because they were tight, the clamps are still on,. the hanger broke, and it must have bounced it self loose or somehting. arghhhh.....

yeah just frustrating - especially since i really havent gotten to drive it much at all with the SC on it... haha. oh well. its almost ready to be parked for the winter now. guess we'll see how things go. didnt wanna spend extra on the exhaust, but im not gunna be comfortable with it anymore unless i get it all welded together....

God I was expecting something like a piston ring to shoot through your hood! At least it's little and not major!
