Tunnel Mount Tq Arm What are the negative effects of a tunnel mounted tq arm vs a trans or relocated full length torque arm? Like how does it effect handling, and i hear they're more prone to try to lift the tires. At a max of 500rwhp would this be something to worry about. Its more of a track car but i still want to handle similar to stock and not make it ride horribly. Thanks

if you want 1/4mi performance, get a tunnel mounted "short" torque arm. those mount closer to the rear of the car.
if you want all-around handling, get the full length torque arm, and mount it on a "relocation bracket" all that does is take it off of the tailshaft of the tranny and mounts it solid to the frame right next to the tranny.
im running the 2nd option with BMR parts in my camaro making 723rwhp and 773rwtq. I have the suspension setup for taking corners
