I don't know if it is just me, but I notice one heck of a difference in the handling. It is awesome. I can feel the back end flex a bit, so now I see a RSB in the future. Having the FSTB gives me a certain confidence in my vehicle now. Maybe I am just crazy. Anyone else get that feeling of confidence with it?

Congrats! Ya, you'll notice a little difference with the FSTB. I think I drove my car harder too, just because of the mental confidence I had with the bar installed. You're going to flip when you install the RSB though. I just installed mine over weekend, it kicks a$$. Definitely go with the RSB!

All of this reading about the FSTB and how easy it is to install is really making me want one.....

No question that for the money...you can't beat a FSTB. IMO it is the perfect first mod because it is easy to install and you can immediately notice the difference.

If you don't have one yet....stop waiting!

Like the looks of the Stillen FTSB, but is there a RSB that is as good, but costs less?
(Hard to see under car, so why spend the money just for the Stillen name?)

Addco will save you about $100 but it isn't quite as adjustable as stillen's and probably doesn't offer the same performance. I'm running one though. They have a group buy at http://www.custommaxima.com right now.

Congrats.
The FSTB and RSB reminds me of the line from Wayne's World 2: "If you post it, they will mod."
