    I would say there's that split second less hesitation cause there's a solid torque mount instead of the sloppy rubber one. Like a better throttle response cause you're not waiting for the engine to twist. Also, I dumped the clutch in the parking lot after I installed it and it was so smooth. One tire fire like crazy, but smooth, no shaking or wheel hop like I used to get.

    Only negative thing I can come up with, and it's not a big deal, but because of the torque mount the car shakes more from the vibration of the engine. That's normal though with stiffer mounts.

I'll tell you what though, I can really tell that those strut bars help. I can also feel a difference with the traction bar, even though I don't have crazy amounts of hp and tq. It makes the car feel more solid, and seems to help the clutch engage smoother. Money well spent IMO.

    Here they are... Front 3pt, traction bar w/ front torque mount, and 4pt rear, finished in black powdercoat. Amazing craftsmanship, couldn't ask for a better product! Many thanks to John at www.ExplicitSpeedPerformance.net.

    I finally got my passenger seat bracket!!! Once my current dash project is done, I'll install the other seat. Only took 10 weeks to get it...

    I also installed the ESP traction bar today. It's pretty awesome.

    Got my 3pt front strut bar, 4pt rear strut bar, and traction bar from www.Explicitspeedperformance.net today. Stuff looks great and I can already feel a difference when I make turns. I don't have the traction bar in yet, but the strut bars are awesome.

    Hells no! Speaking of unique upgrades... I was gonna put the guage cluster from the BB6 lude I've got sitting around into my cb, but then I thought, why not put the whole dash in??? So I'm in the planning process of swapping over the entire dashboard. I'll be posting up pics when I get going on that project, but it won't be till after autox ends in a few weeks. Oh, I'm also gonna do my best to swap over the center console and ebrake too.
