I dunno, I might go for one here shortly (have to reward myself for graduation and my healing broken leg somehow, right?). So which ones should I be looking for and why? I've seen something about one that was bad and I forgot the reason..lot of help, right?
Max Motorsports makes top quality stuff. I love their STB, but also had a Kenny Brown STB that (IMHO) was of equal quality. However, the KB unit would not work with MM's CC plates, so I ended up buying MM STB (and selling the KB). My point: Its not just the brace -- you should also try to factor in your longer-term modifications (and potential clearance issues because some after-market cold air kits are not compatable with certain STBs). With those things in mind, I'd recommend MM because everything they make is great -- at least I have no problems to date, nor have I read about any.

How's the install on these? Do I have to do a lot of drilling/cutting? If it connects to the firewall I would assume so, but you know about assumptions..
