Stillen Brake Master Cylinder Stiffner

Anybody know in general how effective these type of devices are? Do they really improve braking noticably? Maybe only when braking hard such as an emergency stop or out on the track? Or is this just an overpriced piece of engine bay eye candy?

Open the hood on your 350Z and have someone step on the brakes. You'll see the master cylinder dive towards the frame. This hurts your braking performance & softens up the brake pedal. Our Master Cylinder Brace supports the cylinder and translates that wasted motion into braking force. You'll notice the improvement immediately. This brace consists of a adjustable red anodized billet aluminum piece with a delrin support cup and CAD plated mounting bracket and hardware.

Haha.. thanks cru. Shoulda searched and bumped one of those threads. I feel like such a newb...

I'm guessing either no one as this mod yet or very few people do. Was hoping someone had this type of device on another car(s) of theirs and could speak from experience.

Does this mean, this device is just a bunch of hype and not worth discussing or no one has tried it?

Don't rip Darren, ImportTooner posted before I did too. I could of searched before I posted as well.

Like you said I don't think anyone has tried this yet.
