Neuspeed Strut Tower Bar

I just installed the Neuspeed tower brace and am fairly happy. The bar compliments the Eibach sways nicely. Installation was cake. Overall the front end feels more stable and dash rattles are gone, expecially over crappy Michigan roads. For people on the fence, you might not feel a big difference, but if that is what you're looking for, just buy all suspension mod's and install all at once.

I also have the Neuspeed STB and I think that it does more for under hood looks than performance. Maybe if I didn't have the CT sways and springs it would make more of a difference. Every little bit of performance helps though. I am sure that it must add a little.

do you still have the stock bar on also. If so do you get a loud clank from them hitting each other when you go over pretty good bumps?

The fit is tight. I had to jack up the right side to align the strut tower mounting bolts and loosen the OEM bar. The OEM Bar and the Stock bard are flush mounted across the lenght of the bars, but I do not hear any NVH when driving fast over bumps.

I agree the strut bar is more for looks than performance. I put mine in about a month ago and really haven't noticed any difference with the steering feel. It does look good, though.
