Which one is better (handlling)?

Should I go with the Progress RSB or the Warpspeed braces?
Price is not the issue and I have access to a welder.
I am looking for improving handling.
I currently have Koni shocks, Progress springs, courtesy FSTB and 17" with Kumhos.

I say go with the braces. If you're lowered that RSB can be overkill.

As a person with a Stillen RSB who has ridden in many cars with SFCs (which will also be my next purchase) I'd say go for the RSB first. It really helps reduce the front end understeer slide that most front wheel drive cars have. It also increases steering responsiveness by a large amount.

Another cheap thing you can do, since you have konis, is turn them up. I just turned my front and rear both up to 4 half turns and it feels much more stable in corners and rough sections of road. The less bounce in your suspension, the less your camber and other suspension geometry will change.
