cross strut tower brace?

i have an old sway bar from an eclipse and i was going to fab it up to a cross strut tower brace but i did some research and ive read that they dont help our cars at all and are useless and ive also read that they really work. any input would be great

a sway bar is meant to flex, the exact opposite of what the strut tower bar is supposed to do.

Just call OTTP for suspension advice. They carry all the products needed to make your car handle better than any other setups...
