You might want to call Way. He owns the TSW brand. I'm pretty sure he'd sell you one. I love mine.

I have one sitting in the garage that I wouldn't mind selling if you're still interested. PM me if you're still in the market.

Matt, no worries. Create a new thread on here and I am sure you won't have it for long

67Morris, let us know how the install goes and if you notice a difference.

mattkosem, pm me details about your x-brace (why are you selling it, any issues, what condition).

Have fun,
Mike

Mike, it took me maybe 15 min. Very straight forward. Just did a track day on Sunday and the car felt great in both autocross and lapping, especially when exiting corners. NVH is a little more pronounced, but nothing drastic. I think the correct torque specs (I have it at 74 center and about 56 sides)are really important here. Mine was noisy until I retorqued it to the correct specs.
