your car should have a strut tower brace stock. like 1st gen said the trd bar is a bit taller to clear the supercharger. they both perform the same function.

the stock one is fine...

unless, like the others said, you find yourself often showing off what you got under the hood...

^^^^ this was the reasoning behind why I got one....didn't like how much the stock one looks so I got the TRD front strut tower brace.

I know there are front strut tower braces on ebay for less then $20 bucks with shipping. There more appealing to the eye then the stock one and cheaper then the TRD FSTB but I dunno how they hold up and worth the money to spend on it.......maybe somebody that has one can elaborate on it for you.

.....thats just another option for you to look at....... 8)

my SC didnt come with the front strut bar, so when i was rolling around without it, i could feel the diff... if you plan on getting a supercharger then see if urs comes with it, if not, get it.
