Does anybody have the UMI 3 Point subframe connectors? How do you like them. If so which did you get bolt in or weld? I'm thinking about getting a pair. From what I understand weld in is stronger.

weld in are stronger....3-point is useless it's a 2-point subframe with a pivot point in the middle. Now if both subframes where joined together front and rear with each other I could see how they could make a difference with torsional twist but other wise that third connection point out inthe middle of a flimsy floor pan can't do much IMO.....

I have the 3 point SFCs and I absolutely love them!
I didnt think I was going to feel a difference since my car is a Daily driver but believe it or not I do. When switching lanes on the freeway, going into the ramps on freeways,etc.
They also tuck in very good. Cant go wrong with UMI too. Loooove that company

I just put these on my car the other week. I went with bolt ons. I'm still waiting for my drive shaft loop/tunnel brace to come in to tie it all together better. It does feel stiffer over the nasty potholed/patched roads around here and does feel tighter in the corners now. It's not a huge improvement like some people say but it is better. These things look awesome and tuck unbelieveably close. The Y pipe is still lower than the SFC's are.
EDIT...man who drug this thread up from Feburary? I just saw the original post date.
