Ford Racing Strut Tower Brace (kit)

[Coaster]

I just received my Ford Racing 2015 Mustang GT Strut Tower Brace. It's a steal for the price.

You not only get the strut tower brace, you also get the K-brace and the nuts you need all for way less than the price of factory strut brace alone.

Here is a PDF of the install guide: http://www.fordracingparts.com/download/instructionsheets/FordInstShtM-20201-M.pdf

Wonder if it will fit an ecoboost car?

Did you install it yet? Mine is coming soon and I wonder if you need any other fasteners to install besides the ones in the kit. The instructions say you can reuse fasteners, but I am not sure if those are with the PP strut brace or if the cars with non-PP brace have all the fasteners too. Thanks.

Unfortunately the picture is of it already installed on all the Mustangs I own. :(

Does it really require removing the wipers and the cowl beneath them ?

I would like to know the answer to this question also. I picked up this strut tower brace kit on Monday. Thanks.

Trooper89 can probably answer that question the best.

The picture you posted was of the parts received. I guess you have not installed it yet.

Correct. I have two cars built and sitting at Flat Rock in what must be the worlds slowest race. As soon as one of them makes it to my dealer I'll get installed pics posted.

I don't "think" there will be any issue with it working with the EB.
The part that I'm not sure about is, do all cars have the piece that the K brace attaches to.

Mine is a PP car so doesn't it come with the K brace?

Saw the pdf and then from Trooper's post it looks like he didn't have to anything other than disconnect one battery cable...

I think if you can slide the piece under the cowl you don't have to remove the wipers. However, since the wipers attach through holes in the cowl, it looks like they have to be removed. It doesn't look like it's that complicated to remove them btw, there are youtube videos that demo that.

Can anyone comment as to the actual difference in handling?

I would appreciate some detailed information, how the car feels in turns etc.
