Default JG/Edelbrock 3 point strut bar?

Saw this on the hybrid board... spilling the beans on H-T? Haven't seen any posts... anyway, supposedly $109... looks nice.

i remember that stock si/gsr bars are forward just a little to prevent that sensor on top of the TB from hitting and cracking, i believe its the TPS? or something? well yah i remember one time a friend put his on backwards and we found out later that the engine moves and it smashed it up into the bar, cracking part of it. luckily his wasnt broken.

that bar in the pic looks like it goes directly over the top. just a heads up, but it does look nice.

It's not triangulated like this one.

Does it make a difference? I don't know.

Yea, I like the design of the Carbing better... not because I have one but because all both joints meet right at the bracket on each side so it would be a little stiffer. Is that little extra stiffness needed? Debatable.

Yeah, people are flocking to triangulated strut bars because they're "stunna yO!"

Dork.

like i said above though, if u use any manifold other than a stock gsr u will need to move the map sensor.
