Hi guys,

Just wondering if the Omp Gsi strutbrace will fit a valver with a powercap?

No you need the one listed for 1.3 SR, curves around the back next to the bulkhead instead of going straight across like the one for a GSi

Should fit over the fuel rail ok, an SR one will fit better tho.

A Fearless one or an OMP one ?
Cheapest place i found for the OMP one was Rally Design, www.raldes.co.uk (http://www.raldes.co.uk) (i think)

Fairly similar but OMP braces have an adjuster on them, this is one ...

Not sparco i dont think , sparco are like the GSI omp ones, but they have the bar sitting closer to the front of the car, but dead straight. (unless they do more than one, but the style of that seems unlike sparco ones ive seen)

E-Tech maybe?

Bar is one smooth part though, doesn't have the joins on it... Could be a custom one perhaps
