I'm not sure where you're getting that the OEM bar is crap. Do you think a rectangular bar with a hinge on either end will come close to the rigidity of the OEM bar?

This bar can't change the balance of the car. The TL already has a great bar from the factory and this is not a part of the suspension like a swaybar is.

But many with Suspension EDFCs dont have many choices for aftermarket front struts because they are not compatible, so this is functional for those who fall under that category.

Agreed. These bars look great and provide a great solution to people with EDFCs. Buy them for the fitment issues or cosmetics but buying them for performance is a waste of money.

It's in the mind. Impossible to make a difference on the TL.

LOL. The mind is playing tricks on you.
