I don't know man, I always say you get what you pay for!  Those strut bars look pretty wimpy=-(    But hey if that's in your budget and you think it made a differance I guess that's all that matters.

Yea, I got the four piece set off ebay. Great buy all around. For the most part you want to stay away from ebay generic items but no problem with these, and many other people feel the same way here on the forum.

Been a year now with them on, none of them broke.... or fell apart and I am def a spirited driver to say the least. If you want to pay the extra $100+ for a name go ahead.

dito... i like the cheap strut bar.... nothing expensive...

only posible way i would pay for a name brand brace is if i had a wicked motor/turbo setup that saw some wicked driving as well.... then i might pay for the name brand brace....LOL

yeah it is.. not exactly sure how effective it is.. but it sounds cool when i accelerate. ahaha. pretty solid build, pretty basic though, fits just fine.. no problems really.. at times i a screaching/ whistleing sound from i the manifold i think.. i had it looked at, couldnt really tell the prob.. seems like when the manifold butterflys and sucks in air it does it.. around 2000 rpms.. although you just have to adjust the way you accelerate with it.. i dont really mind it.

ya only downfall with the ebay intakes are thier filters.......
eventualy you NEED to upgrade to a good filter.... just measure the opening and buy accordingly to that size....
i have a AEM dryflow on my ebay intake tube..
