Picked this up about a month ago thanks NoviBlownGt. Here it is after taking off the vinyl graffic across the window and badge off the back. Still need to order new fender badges to get rid of the 4.6 supercharged one thats on there. I don't like people knowing what I have:evillaugh:

Looks great!! It was that color right there that first made me fall in love with the S197's.

Thanks for complements. Plan to build the motor this winter and turn up the boost. Have to stay ahead of Kimmer:beerdrink:

Sick car man!

I just noticed you dont have the heat sheild installed on the air filter. Do you have any problems with the car dying out while at speed and not in gear?

Only reason I ask is right after I installed a billet grill, mine would die out like mentioned above. In talking with my tuner he suggested I install the Paxton heat sheild and the problem went away... My problem must have been MAF turbulence caused by all the air that the new billet grill lets in the engine compartment.

No problems with the car dying or anything. I have been thinking of putting a heatshield of some sort on there, but just because of it sucking hot air not because of any problems.
