Looks good, not feeling the trim panel though. FR's look nice on 197's

How are you liking the Mac? Any drone?

I chose to do the trim panel because I hated the look of the fake gas cap in the rear. It also slimmed the rear between the tail lights a little, because of the black adding depth. The rear of the S197's is the hardest part of the car to make look good.

Yeah, the MAC's drone A-L-O-T! The muffler placement of the S197's is horrible. The trunk acts like a sub box for the mufflers. From 1,800 to 2,200 rpm the drone will almost drive you insane. But I love it though!:rockon:

Thanks for the compliment.

A set of gears should help.

Car looks great though :rockon:

Looks clean, really like the rear trim panel


Thanks, 96lasersnake. I like the panel too, just couldn't stand that fake gas cap. You have some bad rides yourself! I really like the look of the black wheels on the L and GT.


To everyone else thanks for the replies. :beer:

Dogfighter, do you have any vid's of the prochamber with the mac's. I have been looking for a clip with both prochamber and the mac's, but I cannot find any with good quality.

If I were you I'd get a Intake/Tune and then gears. Then, deffintly nitrous to hold you over till you get some sort of boost. :)

I like everything on your car but the rear panel. To each his own.

By the time I put intake/tune/gears/nitrous, I could have bought a supercharger! Would be a nice setup with some heads and cams though. Hmmm?!?!

Yeah, I saw your post/poll. Did you keep the black wheels for both? I hope so because that combo was sick!

I love everything you've done so far. Nice car and pitures dude, keep it up.

Thanks Raymond.
