We like to use Stiffler's. It's the lightest ones on the market but still offer a strong connection. They have sections pre-marked so you know where to weld with little to no prep.

These things have saved my life too. I trust them very much!!!

Any questions, shoot me a call. 561-417-5555

I have a glass roof and like to drag race, so I plan on doing the Stiffler's.
I think the other options are Steeda (smaller partial) and BMR.

I have BMR subframes. I noticed a pretty big difference in rigidity

Only think missing is a k member and control arms. Not sure I wanna go that route yet. Rad support was enough for new up front.

Not negative but it has a lot of flex to it. A good brand subframe like BMR or Stiffler's will strengthen it.

I did not know of the BMRs until this thread, only the Stiffler's and Steeda.
Kelley, any advantages to your's? I have many other BMR components ready to go on.

+1 I just did full BMR rear suspension and if I would have known of these subframe connectors I would've add them also.

Our SFC011 for the S197, are the most copied / duplicated SFC for these cars. The reason is because they work so well.

That being said, they do add a substantial amount of weight to the car.

The S197 Chassis is far superior to the previous Fox chassis, BUT, it still benefits from connecting the inner to outer subframe and the front-side of the rear LCA mount.

I recommend them to some; and steer others away, depending on their goal for their car.

In terms of comparing to others, we have had several large organizations test our SFC011 against some of the other options, and the results favored our SFC011 in each occurrence. ;)
