OK i have a APS Tall Boy plenum
and of course the factory Tower wont fit without alot of spacers
And i dislike the APS strut bar so im looking for another

Any opinions on another strut bar that may require one or two spacers (washers) to clear this plenum

 

No matter which standard strut bar you use, when it finally clears the Plenum, the hood wont be flush when closed. Dont take this for fact but it has been my experience

 

Im cool with it not being flushed with the hood (just modify it)

I just dont want 8 ugly washers (LOL) on each bolt to return to my stock strut
so i would like another aftermarket one that requires less washers if any (except the APS bar)

 

Why not get a strut bar that is moved forward like the Crawford strut bar? There is no need for washers as it does not go over the plenum anymore.

 

do you autoX/competitive racing/etc? if not.. from what i hear, you will not notice the difference of driving with or without a front strut bar for dd.

 

cusco maybe?

07 style hood helps as well.

 

imo the crawford looks the best

you could also check out stillen fsb...there are not a whole lot to choose from on these front mount fsb's

 

I agree the crawford look kinda nice

And no worries of clearance

 

This car is gonna find itself on a track sooner than it thinks.....so I think its a must
What r u running "ur signature has me wondering"

 

I assume u running one now
What plenum do u have or what spacer and how clearance do you have?

 

My car is stock at the moment. I will be running one shortly though. Cusco sits higher than most strut bars ive seen, it may even fit without a spacer.
