None. You won't notice a strut bar on a street car.

With a rear beam like we already have, what is going to be moving down there? The bottom will not twist do to the beam... If it were in your trunk connecting the struts I woulod say go for it... Kinda a waste of $30 if you ask me...

Yea, you are the 1 in 100,000 that would actually notice the .1 % difference on a car with relatively no other mods.

It is a waste to spend money on "Name brands" for parts like this. They are all basically the same.
