There has been some discussion on Street-Beat so I thought I'd share my experience with everyone.
I finally got my FSTB yesterday from Street-Beat after 9 days after I have placed the order. It was supposed to be delivered last Friday but didn't make it until yesterday (Monday). It's mainly UPS' fault though.
The FSTB only costs $35, plus $10 for shipping and handling. It's oval-shaped tube in polished aluminum, and seems too good to cost only $35. It even has a decal on it (says "Tuned by Matrix") I spent about 30 minutes installing it on my 96SE last night. I took a quick drive around the neighborhood and felt the big difference. Even the "hesitation" when braking when away. I'd say it's $45 well spent.

I got one, havent installed it yet.
It has a bend at each end.
Do all have a bend, for clearance over the engine?
I would guess this not to be as rigid as a straight bar.
Any thoughts out there?

Yes, mine has a bend on each end as well. I assume it is inevitable for it to fit under the hood.
And yes, it says "Tuned by Matrix" on the bar. The box says Matrix as well. I am not familiar with this name though. And the bar did not come with any paper work wharsoever.
