I just put this on today with my pops. He loves this stuff, and so do I. Carbing Strut bar

Easy install. It feels a bit stiffer, but thats slow driving in the rain, i cant wait for it to dry up. I got this at BDJ's racing. the owner, Brian, is a real cool dude. If you live in the DFW area you should look him up, he does awesome work.

Anyone who drops several hundred on a mod will tell you that it "feels better". It's the placebo effect. Unless he does road racing or auto-X, and has lap times to compare to, there's no way he'll be able to tell if it really does anything at all. Nice looking piece of hardware though.

I think it does improve feel but if it changes the lap time its by less than a tenth at the most.

This is from a manufacurer of Chassis bracing.
