Opinions on strut tower brace? 1 link vs 3 link?
Finally getting to a point in my life where I can irresponsibly buy some car parts.
I've enjoyed buying and installing novel trinkets and knick-knacks. A dash cam, radar detector, UEL header, etc.
I'm curious about the effectiveness of a strut tower brace?
From an engineering standpoint, I love it.
I found a DC sports 1 link (only from tower to tower) for $85 shipped! Wow.
Then I found a local JDL 3 link (triangular brace) for $200.
$200 is likely more than I want to spend on this, but it looks like a much more impressive piece, and certainly more effective in stiffness, combining 3 links into 1 single link.
Question: Is it possible for a strut brace to be too stiff?
Anyone with experience on DC 1-link brace vs a JDL (or other) triangular brace?
Thrashed my car around pretty good going through some mountain twisties last week. 100% stock as far as suspension.
Definitely a very capable car, but always room for improvement.
