I see that such an item is offered here as an accessory, has anyone installed one and found that it makes a noticeable difference? Sorry if this has been covered in an earlier post but I am new. Thanks
From a search with key words Stiffening Plate http://priuschat.com/index.php?act=Search&...tiffening+plate Short answer is yes it works.
short answer... ya i like it. less body roll on curves. i have a fairly steep downhill stretch between my sister's house and mine. it has very sharp turns in it to mediate the grade a bit. definitely a noticable difference. more solid feeling. i have never had much of an issue with handling on the freeway before the plate so cant say if that will improve.
It makes a huge difference. I can feel the road now instead of the car bouncing around. It corners now. When you get one, you'll be happy with the purchase. It's simply put: awesome. It improves both low and high speeds.
i actually find myself going slower so i can enjoy the car more, the road more, and my mpg more to and from work ( roughly 5 miles) i haven't been getting below 50mph. I usually average over 60 going to work. hehe.. fun
