I did not pick up anything in the 1/4 with one 60ft et mph or otherwise. But for a high hp hard hitting tire car it would be a smart investment.

Hello, first off thank you for being a BMR customer. Yes its worth the investment. The factory stamped steel arm will flex and eventually bend. They are not designed to withstand alot of power. Our torque arms are made from 1.25" x.120" mig welded dom steel. We have both adjustable and non adjustable versions. Your car will be more consistant due to the non deflection of the torque arm and when used in conjuction with our torque arm relocation bracket allows you to adjust the "instant center" of your vehicle. If you have any question give me a call.

For what it's worth, a dude here snapped his torque arm almost in half, where it bolts onto the rear. This was on a 35 roll with lid/full exhaust/stock everything else.

Not saying it's common, just saying it's possible.
