There are several strut tower bars for the 8th gen Si. None of them are the 3 point that you have listed though. From my understanding, the front bars won't clear the K20's Intake Manifold.

Edit: Also, our cars chassis is already extremely rigid. This will be an almost pointless mod. The only way I'd start buying anything like this, is after I had every other mod that was on my wish list already.

From what I understand, it actually hits the IM, not the cover.

I agree, it looks very nice. Just buy yourself a rear sway bar. That probably does a lot more for our cars than a strut bar.

Corsport is a great place to order from. I'd go with the Progress rear sway myself. Mine has been on of the best mods I've done to date.

Happy to help sir. If you get that, you may also want to get either the Hotchkis, or Corsport V2 endlinks to go with it.
