Which rear chasis bar setup?

Im looking into a rear strut brace set-up for auto-x im stuck between the cuso 40mm rear strut brace or the em-racing set-up with has the rear strut brace, triangulated trunk bar and rear trunk bar. Which one do you guys think i should go with and if you have experience with either please chime in.

would you be getting the V brace as well with the cusco rear strut brace?

if you dont mind losing trunk space, i'd get teh em-racing brace. it looks like it would stiffen the rear a lot more

What class to you plan to run in? The triangulated stuff is not legal for STU/BSP. Not even sure about SM.

If you want lightweight go DC titanium. I have the 40mm cusco, it seems ok. Weighs 4 lbs.

To be honest, on a budget i think there are better ways to spend you money. Camber plates, swaybars, etc.

Drew,

I thought that might have been you. Andrew (GTWORX) has it right. There is no noticeable improvement from strut bar. Put the $$ towards other things.
