Evo 8 rear strut bar wont clear oem subwoofer

I have a Evo 8 with the SSS pkg and would like to instal a rear strut tie bar in the trunk and was told that it wont clear due to the OEM subwoofer ? is this true ?

Does anyone have the OEM Infinity subwoofer and has a rear tie bar and if so which brand.

Please need your help guys, thank you

In the factory placement, I don't think there is a strut bar that will clear it. It will fit but you have to remove some of the bolts holding the sub. It will sit back there a little loose but not enough to damage anything. That is how I've had my for the last 70k miles.

I had t remove the factory subwoofer to install my BeatRush bar in back, you can hunt around on the forums here to fins an aftermarket molded sub box.
