NightRyda, what type of driving do you plan for your car? Everyone seems to be ignoring the suspension effects of significantly shortening the TQ arm like the chassis mount type does. Unless you absolutely need the extra anti-squat that you'll get from the shorter arm, I would think that the increased brake hop would not be worth it on a daily driver. If you check with the road racing and autox guys, they are actually using decoupled TQ arms (http://unbalancedengineering.com/Camaro/TA/) that improve anti squat without sacrificing braking and safety. If you're interested in all around better performance, my suggestion would be a UMI relocation kit to take the mounting point off the trans and a stock length tubular TQ arm. The UMI piece also has several mounting points to help you adjust pinion angle if you lower the suspension.
