I think like most bracing, you'll find that they are a small percentage increase in performance that add up. I cannot feel the difference with or without my front strut brace with street tyres but I can with R-comps.

u guys cant feel the difference when comming into a corner.. I can defiently feel the car has better grip around corners than it does when i take the strut off.
i mean its not a huge difference but there is some there
