Default Brake Stopper Thoughts, Value?

Brake stoppers are relatively inexpensive these days. Who has installed one? What do you think of the results? Are they just hype or of actual value?

It would be beneficial if you track your car but for street use the results would be minimal.

As In the thing that keeps your master/booster from flexing forward when stomping on the brakes?

I installed one and with spirited street driving I honestly did not notice any difference.

Unless you are standing on that brake pedal and threshold braking, I doubt you're flexing that firewall.

Yes I’m talking about ones that mount to the suspension bolts on top of the wheel well and adjust to prevent the master cylinder from moving.
