Default Spoon STB

I just received and installed my Spoon STB today. I don't know if it was my imagination or not (since I know my self that the STB shouldn't make much of a difference for our cars) but I felt the front of the car actually really being more stiff and stable. I was even jerking my car left and right continuously to test it out, it really felt more stiff. What's you guy's take on this?? for those that have a Spoon STB, or STB in general.

The problem is though, that the STB and my AEM CAI is a tight fit. It actually creates a rattling sound from time to time when I'm driving, mainly over bumps or rpm jumps. I'm going to slip a little wrapping foil between it tomorrow, what are the solutions you guys came up with??

my final opinion on this is that, it's worth the money as far as I'm concerned. The car now feels more stable, atleast to me (haha I don't care if it's my imagination). I even raced a 300zx on the way home, hahah, it was tied between me and him, the zx is modded, how much I don't know. I know that was off topic but, just thought to share.

Do you also have the X-brace installed? In terms of stiffness-adding mods, that's one of the best on the list!

I thought the AEM CAI and the Spoon STB didn't fit! Thanks for letting us know that it does!
