STBs make a difference, but i think its hardly noticeable to most, unless your auto-xing everyday.
Dont buy hotchkis new, if you can find one used snag it.

Thats how I know it really snugged up the front. I have UMI now (cost like 60 bucks) looks alright, makes a good place to lean onto. Also good to lift the front if i ever drop the motor. Make a difference? Prob not, maybe in extreme cornering.
