UMI rear control arm reinforcements - any thoughts?

I have the shock tower brace on my car and it helped a lot. As for the control arm braces not sure I have been looking at them my self.

I installed the hotchkiss control arm braces, which look exactly like the ones in pics except black, and they fit great with all the other components i have in rear.
Cant say i notice any difference but quite sure it does help support that area.
 
I also have rear shock upper mount brace. Helped out some. But I doubt if my car has enough ass (power) to break any mounts , that's why I haven't done the other ones. The front heavy duty triangular front brace from SC&C tightened up the steering feel, though.
 
Since mine is stock, I don't know. But if you call them directly, they could tell you .

When you say the shock tower brace helped a lot, what was the improvement you noticed after you installed it?
 
That body was stiffer and it has less roll. It felt like the car was one instead of a cadi lol.

But can you run that front brace with an aftermarket intercooler?

Nope, won't fit with a stretched SLIC....the SC&C triangular front brace only fits the stock factory intercooler.
There was talk about designing a modified version for stretched SLIC's but I haven't heard any news on this for years on, think it's dead in the water.

I run the SC&C front brace with a CASV4 Stretched SLIC and it fits fine.

Definitely would not fit with my Precision SLIC.....I tried and the cross brace was the problem. You would have to cut and re-weld the cross bar.
