Default STRUT BRACE INSTALLED

wow did that make a difference i can take corners at a higher rate of speed and the snake turn by my new house is sooo much better at 50 then 40 that thing really does prevent body roll i thought it would make a tiny differnece but dam this is noticable i think everyone should get one they are soo cheap and make your engine bay look soo purrty i painted mine the color of my car ill post sum pics later

do you have any idea how it helps, if any, with the straight line acceleration of the car?

LMAO!!! I have one also but I havent really drove a stang without one so I dont know the difference in them. You can also buy one for the rear that bolts up in the trunk. I wonder if that would help a lot also???
