Torque Brace with a Damper

Anyone have any experience with a shock dampened torque brace? They are being sold on E-Bay.

Get a Garfinkle (spelling?). Both myself and another guy in the Houston club have them in our cars. They are really the way to go if you want and torque brace.

Yep it is. And it's also the cheapest torque brace you can buy at $85.
