A strut bar is a strut bar is a strut bar... they all perform pretty much the same. It comes down to cosmetic preference and budget. If it looks good... I say buy it!

FYI, a 2-point strut bar is not the same as a 3-point nor a 4-point

i wouldn't say the number of points have so much to do with it, but rather the fact if the points swivel. a solid bar like Mugen, Neuspeed, Carbing, and Password JDM work a little better then those with swivel points.

like said above, some bars are more functional than others, but stay away from the mugen "replicas"

Personally, I intend to go with the real deal, since Mugen parts are top notch. You can get them at kingmotorsports.com (thanks noel!) for $290. I bit steep, but you get what you pay for in the auto parts market =/
