You can get headers pretty cheap now, but I hear ya. I need more show mods now, but I still want to finish my mods with doing the head and raising compression. After that there really isn't much left.
 
yeah im going for more show then go. But a few go fast mods wont hurt. Im sure once i get the TB on ill get hit by that bug. Ill just have to learn to not speed. 1 speeding ticket away from losing my licence lol
 
I gotta do def driving for a ticket next Saturday. Unfortunately I got another ticket a little over a week ago running late for work. Have to pay like $175 for this one which I coulda used towards my coilovers.
 
lol i think my cheapest ticket was $150 my most expensive was $275
 
Between this latest ticket, the one i'm taking def driving for plus the cost of the class I could've paid my coilovers off by now. Of course I did just by Eurostar led tails, aluminum valve cover and an AEM cold air intake. Coulda used that money to finish paying for coilovers lol.
 
just letting everyone know im back!!! if anyones around the north west side and bored we can chill i usally hav wed and fridays off. maybe this time i can put more back into focalize and help make us bigger around h-town, i thought a lot of ideas for the group these last few months.

Well my wife called me up here at work. She said Merlin's hole is bigger and it has necrotic flesh coming out of it. You can see inside the hole and see rotten or necrotic flesh. We are going to take him to the vet first thing in the morning. If they can't do anything or we can't afford to do anything we might have to put him down. I don't know what to do. I don't wanna put the dog down but I don't want him to suffer and die from an infection.
 
Damn that sucks. Necrotic flesh is usually a really bad sign. Unless they can treat with antibiotic I would think surgery would be needed if it's operable. Otherwise the poor fella might have to be put down. Hope the vet can give you some good news.

yeah well I have a feeling already what the vet is going to say. All the vets in our area said it was a cosmetic and now it's going to kill him. I dunno I'm pissed off at the vets already.

Just for you Tom-E here are some pics. The hole as gotten bigger. If you look closely you can see a piece of necrotic flesh hanging out the hole on the bottom left.

Oh and enjoy breakfast before looking

If you can't see the piece hanging out the hole then you must be blind. Nasty stuff.

We are taking him to the vet first thing in the morning when they open. Hopefully they will just clean it out and pack it or do something. I just don't want to put him down. If this is going to cost any sort of serious cash (not that any amount isn't serious at our finance level right now) then he will have to be put down.

Good news, Merlin will live....for now lol

Vet says it looks than it is. Gave us some stuff to squirt in it. It may dry and heal on it's own. Once we finish his antibiotics we bring him back and see if it is filling up again. If so then we surgical remove. Oh and the surgery is affordable. So he will live yay!!
