Re: best strut tower braces?

A strut tower brace is a strut tower brace IMO.

Many people have had issues with the 3 point style, so i would look for a 2 point.

Ive got one for sale if you want it. Its a TPIS adjustable unit. Black. Took it off because it wont clear my new single plane intake manifold.

Not really sure. It would allow you to mount it without pulling the upper spring mount studs down level with the fender so the holes in the end plates will slip over the studs. I guess if you had some weird tolerances in the factory build, there might be some advantage in being able to change the length.... just guessing.
