Well I am getting a upper strut bar and want to know which one you guys prefer, neuspeed or DC sports. Also will both fit if I have a injen cold air intake?

Rep Power: 453 Well I think I am going to buy the dc sports. Just need to know if it will fit over the injen cold air intake? And also will it fit with a carbon fiber hood?

Rep Power: 424 The DC bar is a piece of **** (well 5 pieces of **** actually). Its pretty weak since its multiple parts and its full of bolts and holes.
The Neuspeed bar doesn't look as pretty, but its all function. 1 welded together piece is much stiffer than 5 pieces held together with nuts and bolts.
Both clear the intake.

Rep Power: 307 just wondering, im looking for a upper tie bar as well, but I dont feel like spending a lot of $ since im saving up for a new car 
. Anyway, if I get one of those 20$ upper strut bars from e-bay, will they help with the cornering? From what I've read, the only problems these bars had was hitting an aftermarket intake (aem, injen), but I still have the stock air box in there. So, would these cheap tie bars do what they're supposed to do? I dont plan on changing my intake.

Rep Power: 0 I have the neuspeed strut bar with the injen rd intake and it fits and works perfectly. only get it if you have aftermarket suspention. I used it for about a year and a half with stock suspention and nothing.
aem sri w/ skunk2 coilovers and spc camber all around.
the DC or neuspeed?
the dc looks much better but seems like neuspeed can perform much better. i use my car on streets only, non of that autocross n such.
and whats the cheapest place to get these items?
