      I heard it balances the exhaust pressure. More hp and torque.

            I'm pretty sure Eric (88grandmarq) used to run one, he may even still have it. I think one or 2 other people on cvn run them.

              I found out two other people have them. I guess I'm number three.

                Here's some new pics I took this morning.









                I know they suck, but I'm still learning how to take pics.

                      :no: Your Panther is very nice & cool but the quality of the pics are blurry and the engine bay have plenty of rust in most parts and the hood insulator is a crap disgusting garbage get rid of them,get a new one and do a clean of the engine bay, then spray it all engine with WD-40 and if possible replace parts that can cause problems in future, Sorry for the discharge Mang take it as a...Stronger advice.

                        Looks nice. In the back, you need a spring on the drivers side to hold the filler panel close to the bumper.

                          Evil LTD: Paul, you have good eyes. I recently noticed the spring was missing when my car was up on the lift having the exhaust welded on. I want to hide the tips a little more. Lately it seems like everyone that pulls up next to me at a stoplight wants to race me.

                          Grand_Marquis_GT: I'm bolting an Explorer intake, 65mm TB and EGR spacer on next.

                          sniper308: I'm going to clean up a few items under the hood, but this isn't a "Show Car". I just bought a new camera yesterday. I'm not a professional photographer. The flash went off at times when I didn't need it.

                          zwack88: When I bought the Red Top, I didn't know the Yellow Tops were a little better. I also have a 3G alternator on the car, but you can't really see it from the engine pic.

                            I want to run Marauder tips on my car. What I want to do though is find somebody good with metal work, and run the tips through the bumper. The only problem being that I would have to find someway of insulating the tips from the bumper so that when they vibrate they don't hit the edges of the hole. Something like that may make the tips less obvious. And it would look really nice to boot.

                              Just notch the rear bumper and shorten the hangers.

                                I had thought of that, and I don't think it would look good where our bumpers aren't body colored or really formed to the body lines. It looks good on newer Panthers, but the bumpers are body colored and they look as one with the body.
