Ive always found it interesting, so many people spend time making these aftermarket X braces and putting them in places (behind back seat, radiator support, monte carlo area) and find it as not being much more than somebody who is reinforcing areas that are not overly prone to flexing with respect to noticeable need to do so. Im only stating this as an observation that quite a few people have done. Ive not heard much as to its overall positive affects in changing much, unless its clearly obvious that your engine size and related torque produced is significantly bigger than even mildly built engines, so as to make the argument that the BIG HP, TORQUE motors are flexing areas on the car enough to warrant a need for bracing. Am I just seeing this all wrong, or is it that some people just like to do it for the sake of doing it? Just my observation, and no other reason for my post.
