Real question is, can the driver spot the difference?

Can the driver "feel" the difference?

The real question is, did strut tower flex change at all because of the bar.

I do like the simple design though.

A simple answer to all questions is "Yes"

The stock units are tied to the firewall, and you still get flex/movement in the towers when the car is pushed hard/suddenly into a turn. This bar gives you better and a more precise "feel" of the front end being planted to the ground, and by reducing the flex it can improve cornering ability of the vehicle.

Our's is made from CNC machined flanges on the ends and uses the same diameter tubing as OE as well as wall thickness. Weight of the unit is only 2 lbs.

Standard Finish is wrinkle Black giving it a complete 100% OE Look.

Since everything is precise CNC machined, the fit is OE perfect and best of all it is 100% made in the USA with US materials. :thumbup:

And lastly it is a simple upgrade that is affordable and takes less than 5 minutes to install.

Does it mount to both bolts on the strut tower or just one? What is it made of; Steel/Aluminum?
