Stiffens the front end up. Here is a comment a customer of mine made

I am very impressed with the car's new feel. The steering feels smoother, the car shakes less over pavement irregularities, the handling is tighter, turn-in is more crisp and predictable, and the speed I can take into highway on-ramps is higher. Totally worth the trouble and the money. Definitely way better than a strut brace, though I think that already having one amplifies the results.

Prices will not be discussed in this thread, it would be breaking the rules.

Any idea when we can expect to break these rules?

Or where we can go so we can see the price and not break rules?

People are not going to want to drill into there frame. These are a bolt on piece, which makes the supply for them even more higher.

I don't know if I would say understeer or oversteer is really effected that much, I would say the steering feels better overall. I don't to understeer a lot anyways, but when going into to turns, the car feels so much more solid.

Great. Maybe it is just a misconception in my mind, but everytime I think of stiffened front end, I think of understeer. The design/quality of build looks great.
