I think all the subframe connectors are pretty much the same. With a 10 point I didn't think you would really need them though

Hello
I noticed you were looking into a set of SFC's and I just wanted to leave you know that UMI Performance offers a 3 point SFC that ties the weakest points in the suspension together. Below is a link to show you what we have to offer. And we offer 2 versions bolt on and weld on and even a optional Chrome Moly version for extra weight savings.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
Thanks

If you are planning on installing a 10-point cage I would not bother with subframes.

If you must have them we do offer 2 different versions of 2-points that can be found HERE

With the extra support of a 10-point cage I do not see the need for a subframe connector but like I mentioned if you do want one a 2-point is going to be more then enough IMO.

The 3 points wont work with true duals but the regular ones will. Also there are plenty of guys running cages with subframe connectors thats the point of the cage to tie the 2 parts of the car together

Actually this is incorrect. Our 3-Point SFC's will clear with any exhaust system out there, including dual systems. You won't even run the pipes close.

Hope that helps,
Ryan

I just ordered some bolt-in 3-points from UMI. Earlier this week they e-mailed me some directions (twice, they're thorough), I needed to reinstall some of their stuff since I lost the paper directions. Everything I've bought through them so far has been great quality and the customer service is great too. I'll take some pics when I get them on
