Cusco Type-1 Front Lower Under Brace Acura TSX

http://www.modacar.com/products/Acur...ssisbrace.html

Does anyone have any experiance with this mod? If so, how is it? Was it easy to install? How was handling improved? I saw it on the web the other night and when I saw the price it seems like it could be worth it (if it does anything). I wonder if it would be a nice compliment to the RSB I just put on. Thanks in advance for any thoughts/comments.

My itchy mod finger got the best of me.

I ordered it today and it should be here in a few business days. The type II is supposed to be even more rigid than the type I and for a few dollars more I said what the heck. Hopefully I can install it soon (now that the weather is getting nicer) and can write up something about it.

I did the Type II right after I bought the car two yrs ago and can't prove that it changed handling/rigidity dymanics but how can it not??? I bought it along w/ several other chasis/susp mods that all together helped to transform the overall driving for the positive.

Thanks for the response. I figure for the money it can't hurt to try. I do have the Progress RSB but the setting is set to the softer one. I plan to change that to the stiffer setting soon and see if I can feel a difference. Is your car dropped at all?

dropped on Pro-Kit, so I'm ~1.5 lower than stock. Love the ride, but there is always room for improvement.

Will do. I may have a couple of things done to the car while I am away on vacation at the end of the month...this mod being one of them.Only if I can get under the car on a weekend before hand will the review come sooner.
