Default The 2pt vs. 3pt tower bar discussion *searched*

So I've taken a look around and read through all / most of the archived threads in here about 2pt vs. 3pt front tower bar. The general consensus is that a 3pt tower bar's potential will never fully be used on the street - in other words, the difference between a 2pt or 3pt (firewall) for street use can be considered negligable. I have an ASR subframe brace, 23mm rear sway, 26mm front sway etc. and love a tight suspension, but would rather spend the $200 elsewhere if the difference is not great at all. Opinions?

Is a password jdm / carbing / etc. 3pt tower bar worth the $200 compared to that of a gsr / si / ctr 2pt bar for $40?

Do yourself a favor and get the real deal Carbing bar if you decide to get one, stay away from the Password junk.

As for the effect of the 3 point versus the 2 point, I really can't tell you from a Honda perspective, but on a Mustang the 3 point version really makes a very noticable difference in feel of the car.
