Default Torque Arm suggestions???

gonna be getting a TQ arm soon. just seeing which ones you guys suggest for a 6 speed that will be doing hard launches on slicks.

I was looking at the spohn adj. TQ arm with driveshaft loop and spherical rod ends

Also looked at random tech. and BMR.

What do you guys suggest so far I am leaning towards the spohn unit unless you guys can tell me different

running the spohn t/q race version.which ever brand you go with just make sure it doesnt mount on the tailshaft of the trans. especially for m6 cars.

Call them up, I bet they have one that you're looking for. I am in the same boat.

Just keep in mind that if you prefer quietness and smoothness, relocating the torque mount to the car will vibrate alot more.

Not saying that mine wasn't bad but look at my post in the suspension section. I killed a Spohn two nights ago.

We just got the Spohn Chrome Moly with the front loop and spherical rod ends. She looks plenty hefty and will clear the SLP LT Header Y-pipe without a problem.

The car is out for the install of the custom chrome moly 8-point roll bar. So the TA is going to sit for a week before we put it to the test. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
