torque brace owners pls read

which direction do you load the brace...

do you extend th brace so it pushes the engine towards the driver side

or do you retract it so it pulls the engine towards the passenger side..

or just leave it neutral


for best performance (eliminating 1-2-5) interests

Brace starts from the P/S wall and extends towards the UIM/LIM junction. Dragon Fabricated one for FDOkinawa that runs from the Smog pump to the Strut tower brace.

If you're worried about mis-shifting 3rd gear, I would suggest the torque brace AND a short shifter...I can't see how you would mis-shift third with this setup...I sure as hell can't...
