Default Those of you with the Forge Adsutable Strut Brace...
notice quicker tighter steering? How about any ill effects?

I installed mine lastnight and the cars handling feels improved. I was told the Forge unit was really just for looks. I can feel a big difference in steering it feels much more precise.

Default I was guessing the stock bar was decent enough :-)
The Froge one sure looks nice but it doesn't seem much more substantial.
