CREWZIN is correct, all the strut bars are basically equal in what they do. I bought the Freedom Design because it was the only strut bar that didn't require moving the clutch fluid container from the stock location. Plus it's one piece and made of stainless steel. I haven't seen Freedom Design's strut bar for the turbo yet, so I wouldn't know if they included the right side bracket to mount the control module thats there. The FD N/A strut bar is a perfect fit, although when installing it, the bar does have some tension built into it, so you have to pry/push it into place. But thats not a big deal or something that's difficult to do.

When the BTG strut bar 1st came out, I went down to PT Tuning to look at it installed on their own PT's and they said you would have to either remove your vanity cover and hood liner or it would hit (have to relocate the clutch container too). Some people filed down their vanity covers or added foam pieces to it. Not sure if they improved the design since then.

No wish I had though.

I think I may go with the Freedom design bar from Raceandstreet. I want to paint it a different color maybe too.
