Well it's red and shiny and it's always cool to say you've got a strut brace.

It stiffens the front slightly, helping with cornering. Consequently make the back feel softer.I preferred mine without tbh as it made a nicer,softer ride. If you're going to tune the car or track it, you'll get more out of it smile

I thought the run-out 20VT[6] had the brace as standard...

Truffle is generally regarded as the strutbrace expert on here. Maybe drop him a PM.
