Default Subframe Connectors

Hey guys,
I waslooking through rpmoutlet.com and found this subframe connector setup....http://www.rpmoutlet.com/musv6matrix.htm#1. I was just wondering, what all will this really do? Does it improve handleing? If so how much? Do any of you have it? Any feedback would be great.
Thanks, Mike

Here is what they do as described by Steeda:
Subframe Connectors strengthen the body structure, reducing body twist and tying the suspension together

In short, they're only good for high powered drag cars that make so much power than the subframe bends to a degree where performance is compromised, they can also be used on auto crossing applications to reduce frame twisting in the corners which will help reduce oversteer, however, this gain is marginal at best.
