I've got the Neuspeed x-brace. Well engineered: light, strong, powdercoated, flatened oval tubing, does not interfere with oil changes, costs $150.00

You will notice a difference when driving aggressively around corners.

They all do what they were intended to do. The only factors to consider is price and looks. The Spoon one is not heavy, in fact the weight difference between all of them is probably less then 5lbs hardly a deciding factor.

Digrappa! Big difference in response and not just while autoX/tracking.

MUZ get's my vote! It works, it's cheap and it doesn't get in the way of oil changes!

Spoon Sports is the one I have and I agree with the comments above, there is a very noticeable difference with the body roll, and through corners. You plant the corners flat with this brace.

An added benefit to any X brace you choose is that it serves as a "cage" protecting the oil pan. I ran over a big a$$ rock a few months ago and it saved my pan!
