i had one on prior to my comptech install.. the comptech vtec sandwich plate uses the same mounting bolt so i would have to modify the j's etd i have now to fit it .. i will do it soon, all i need to do is drill a hole on a different side of the bracket and it will be able to mount up.

when i had it without the charger i couldnt really tell if it helped or not.

I've got one, but I can't tell when It's installed or not. I ran the car without the damper for several months and noticed no significant difference. when I 1st bought it I thought there was an improvement, but 3 years later I'd say it's all for looks. A custom body side bracket is required for use with a Vortech.

Since the fuse box bracket has been removed it's now installed to hold up the fuse box.
