Thumbs up MY VOTE.................

I'v got to tell you that I stop today to look and compare the SLP to the Kenny Brown SFC. at ls1speed here in ILL. and ..........WOW......... what a big differance the slp sfc's are. not to ruffle any feathers out for the guys that have KB, but the slp are massive and and constucted much better than the kb.
I had them installed today and what a nice feel from the car very tight, i still do get a feel rattkes but there more from the underside, sqeaking and high pitch rattles from the rear windows and fenders no longer exist. very pleased with them.
just wanted to let you know from first hand expeirence. They charged $65.00 to weld them in, and which ever one you get,make sure you weld them in and not bolt them in...

Of course there are alot of makes , and different types as well. I have RK Sport SFC's. They welded in easy, and made a huge difference. I went with the normal SFC's, allthough RK Sport does offer Triangulated SFC's. The difference being mine welded in front and back, and the triangle ones mount and weld in 5 spots. depends on what you want , and want to spend !!!

Double Diamonds are overkill on a regular street car.
There are some good companies out there making tubular SFCs that will do the job at a good price.
I would only reccomend spending the extra money for the SLPs or the KBs if your gonna road race or SCCA race alot.
For the record I have KB double diamond SFCs on my car, they have been great for me, not one problem in the 4 years they have been on the car.

Thumbs up

no such thing as overkill in louisiana with our messed up streets. I bought kenny brown's from thunder racing in baton rouge, LA and love them. I would rather a subframe grab more than just the front and rear. I love em, you won't be disappointed. If you get other ones, sure they will work but you will always wonder,"what IF I would have bought kenny browns."

I know they may have been overkill for my stock car, but at the price i got them and the welding, I couldn't pass it up. I also agree
there are more points making contact and holding the frame stiffer
than just straight tubulars sfc.
to each his own. but you can't go wrong with any of these sfc.

Another vote for Kenny Brown's DD. Daily driven car, lowered, on crappy roads.
