The struggle is real. I paid $700 for my CSL brace, before the price went to the moon. I sold it the next day, after I found out it didn't fit with the gen 1 Eventuri.

Now, they're 4x the price. I was like, "man, theres no way Im getting rid of a $3,000 intake for a $700 strut brace." Maybe I should have?

yeah I saw them at 900$ when announced... now you get any ''basic'' aftermarket strut brace for this price ! I might get fall in line or VTT in silver.

I got the V1 eventuri intake also !

I liked the VTT before the CSL brace came out. I do like the Karbonius with the black hardware.

There is some truth to this.
