I have an 05 GT with Saleen sc. Others have said I need subframe connectors with all the sc power. One article I read says with the 05 & up you don't need one. Thanks!

I am not positively sure if you need them or not, BUT, with all that extra power my bet is that you will need to make some suspension mods to get all that power to the ground, best of luck with the build Just out of curiosity, whats the PSI on the Saleen SC?

No you don't! You'ld be better off spending you money on LCA's and a k- member brace. The S197 chassis is extremely stout sub-frames are not required under 600RWHP

Some say you do, some say you don't. I had BMR boxed subs on my 05 and I could feel the difference after install. Then again I got more money than brains.

I'd love to hear how it runs, once you get it sorted and get her to the track let us know how you do
