I have light weight aluminum front (only) strut braces in both cars (987S and 993 Turbo). Both cars exhibit very sharp and crisp turn in. No creaks and squeaks. I've always had the strut braces, so I can't really compare to a car without.

Cost is less than $200. Easy to install (remember....24-25 ft. lbs. torque on the strut bolts) and takes less than an hour.
