Strut tower brace with VMP/Roush TVS

[hispeedlodrag]

Hey folks,

Does anyone know of a strut tower brace that will fit over a VMP/Roush TVS and have sufficient clearance under a stock hood?

Thanks!

FRPP GT500 strut tower brace will.

Why would you want to cover the blower?

I think steeds makes one that fits over it.

I've heard conflicting reports on the 07-09 Ford Racing GT500 brace fitting. I think it depends if you have an airbox or not. I'd like to get one, but don't want to take a chance unless I know it's going to fit.

Didnt work for me...hit the hood. I wish it did work as it was a nice clean tubular design.

Does yours hit the hood at all? See, this is what I'm talking about. One guy says it fits, the other says it doesn't. What gives?

I can say by experience on my 2011 the brace hits the hood on the driver side at the strut tower. I think 2013 hood must have a little more clearance on sides above the strut towers.

It barley touches the hood liner, I mean very slightly.

Hits my '13 without the headliner.

Going to give this a try when I install a VMP TVS on my '14 A6 vert. Ford Racing M-20201-C for '07-'09 GT 500. Here's a link to a URL that has the best price I've found so far with free shipping, $143.99:
