This has been debated so many times it's ridiculous.
Many people say it does nothing. Some people say they felt a noticeable difference the minute the brace was on.

I had one but removed mine!
That money can be much better spent elsewhere

Meh.. It's just one more part to buy.. a Good handle.. But not after the car's been runnign for an hour at 100* outside temps... Burns much?
I noticed the front end to be a little more solid.. and I mean little.
And it's a shock tower brace. We don't have struts,

I'm on the fence on this one. I don't know if it's jus' added weight or a good mod.
One thing I wonder is the different Strut Tower Braces out there. Some look to have a higher arc then others and thought, "Wouldn't the higher-arc ones be less effective?" Think about it. If you have a STB that looked like an ????? spoiler, wouldn't it flex a lil' bit? But if you had a bar that extended from what shock tower to the other, with no curve, wouldn't that have the most deflection?
I dunno, I've wondered that.
