ARC bar installed, along with OSIRIS and Powergrid

Had a busy weekend. Went down to Austin and had SoulSpeed install and adjust my Powergrid adjustable sway endlinks. Then headed over to UpRev for the day to get OSIRIS installed on the car.

UpRev = super cool guys, hung out with Richard and Jared for most of the day. We had to let the car cool between runs so they showed us around Austin a bit and even took us out to lunch. Best hamburger I've had in a long time. Thanks again guys.

Then installed my ARC front strut bar. Went on easy, plenty of clearance. Included some pics of the bar installed.

yeah, i gained good torque, most of all though, it smoothed out the power band. Gained some HP too.

the handling is noticeably better, slight, but there. I can feel it handle better going into turns but really feel it coming out of turns.

I'm sure any bar works just about as well as any other.

The only reason I got the ARC is because I happened upon a local guy selling an otherwise bone-stock G35, but by some bizarre twist he had put an ARC strut bar on it!

I contacted him and bought it from him since it was inlikely that this would increase the value of the car for sale. What luck.
