what size pipe is that on the brace? looks like that would flex more than the strut towers would alone... but whatever floats your boat, and it was free!

al it has to do is keep the towers from flexing inward. since they don't flew much to beguine with all you have do is help support them. and the bar you have is just fine. if i can locate it i will post a picture of what it does.

i know u said no comments on the intake,but... that looks better then what most of me friends have done. they have just put a tin can inbetween the tube and a cheap cone filter. the bar does look nice.

i tried to make an intake like that on my 92 2.2l conv. but when i saw the cone filter sitting in my friends drive after crusin i decied to take it off. i guess i should have used some thing better then duck tape. i just removed the lower air box and left the part that the filter stays in, in the car.
