I know this might be hard for this crowd to answer, since few of you probably ever drive sedately, but does the FTSB make a difference in everyday driving ? Or do you only notice it when you push the car a bit ?

thanks,
bob

even under regular driving you will notice a huge change in how easy the car follows your command up front due to the new stiffness... then after a week or two you'll forget about it because you'll think you're car was always that good.

I drive like a wuss, and the FSTB provides a noticeable benefit but nothing like the "night and day difference" some owners rave about.

The cars steering and suspension doesn't feel sloppy over bumps after the FTSB upgrade.
