STRUT tower bars. Which ones do you prefer?
STrut Bars, which ones do you guys prefer and why?
Why do dc strut bars have big holes in them? i would think this would deter its strength.

i would guess just for design.

on a different topic, how do you like your N1 exhaust? how loud is it, and what kind of tone do you get from it?

i like my n1 exhaust allot. It is louder than most of the other cat-back systems, but it is controlable and comes with a silencer (which i never put on). It is queiter than many custom set ups people have and allot quieter than a straight pipe set up. The sound is a nice deep throaty sound. not an annoying high crackle

I've heard Comptech makes a really good strut tower bar.

Thanks for the link

Yes comptech makes a great bar, your best bang for the buck with strut tower bars is the Neuspeed, no pivots and it can be had for under 120$

If you want it fuctional and are not out for looks, and money is an issue I reccomend it highly.

Check out that link for a better explaination

Well from a performance stand point I believe in Neuspeed and Comptech cause they actually have their strut bars in race cars.
