Do you have your torque arm installed? How do you like it? Launch improved?

Yep did it last weekend. I bought the BMR and it is a nice piece. I found it "tightened" up the rear end a bit. It seems to stop the wheel hop. I have not really "got on" if from the start. I'll save that for the track or maybe Sunday in the industrial section. Last Sunday it rained here so I couldn't do it. Tom Byrne said some of his customers report 2 tenths lower e.t.s - that seems like an awfull lot, but maybe they were hopping quite a bit at launch.
I'll let you know if I get a chance to try it out.

Did you install it yourself? How was it? I assume you got it from Tom Byrne? How much? I was thinking of doing shocks, springs, swaybars and torque arm this coming winter on the SS.

Got it from BMR - I liked it better than the Random Technology one from Tom. I like Tom, but the BMR piece seemed nicer and it is a very nice one. Hmmm if Tom could get the BMR?
Yep installed myself if the garage with hand tools. Would be a snap for you - since I'm all thumbs! Rock is getting one too.
Maybe a group deal???
It does stop a lot of wheel hop, keeps the rear squared up.

I'm in on a GP if Rock or someone starts one. I have the BMR STB already.
