Just installed my Stillen FSTB!

Hey everyone!

I know it's nothing to brag or boast about, but I just wanted to say that I just installed my Stillen FTSB yesterday. Haven't been able to test it yet since the roads are wet, but I will once the sun pops out and the roads are dry!

Wet roads are the best time to try it out! Nothing like swerving around corners at 60MPH on a wet road

come on now, taking any turn at speed will wear down your suspension, but please what are you going to do slow down? You paid for the car so enjoy and drive it how you want. Especially with that FTSB. Let us know how you like it.

Well if you brake to slow down for the turn, you're just wearing down your brakes faster...

Taking hard turns will not only wear down your suspension, but also your tires, brakes (if used), steering wheel (death grip), etc... but I do it anyway.
...and I love my new FTSB! Can't wait for my RSB now...

Nah, It'll probably be the Addco RSB...no one can see the RSB anyway so looks aren't a factor this time.
