Default ITR Strut Bar

Hey guys I have a '95 RS and I wanted to get a front strut bar. I may be able to get an ITR bar for cheap. So my question is what would I need in order to install the bar in my car?

Comptech sells a front strut tower bar that looks a lot like the OEM R one. It is supposed to be 10x stiffer than stock. That one might be easier to get a hole of and looks about the same (minus the Type R sticker, but you don't own a Type R).

Is the Comptech 10x stiffer than the stock TypeR? That could be a decent upgrade.

I'm highly skeptical that the Comptech bar is 10x stiffer than even the stock GS-R bar, which is pretty damn decent (certainly more functional than the DC line of flexi-bars). Besides, the stiffer you make the front, the more the car will want to understeer, which is often a step in the wrong direction.
