NRG Innovations STB for the FX35/45

Hello all. Below are some photos of a possibly new STB available to us FXers. It's lighter than the Stillen, for sure does not hit any hoods or hood liners. The brackets feel nicer in build than the cad plated brackets.

Any questions comments?





Unfortunately it does not clear the Stillen supercharger without some kind of modding.


On my FX.




Stillen bar for reference, the NRG bar and brackets would look really good.


I wont sugarcoat anything and say it's xx.x% stiffer for lateral Gs and corner balanced for 95 degree apex turns. It feels good, no worse than the Stillen so if you have a Stillen and not rubbing and don't want an upgrade no need to change your bar.

Test fitting it for NRG, wanted to see if it would clear a Stillen supercharger which it didn't.

All pieces are aluminum. Bolts are polished stainless steel allens, the bar fits snug in the bracket, the bar is I/H beamed so flex should be lower than the Stillen with the arch.

I'm sure there are positives and negatives to both design.

Waiting to hear on pricing.
