i have been running one of these for the last couple of weeks, and I think it is the perfect addtion to the car. You can fine tune braking/on power steering, just to your needs!

It gives you the ability to adjust the amount of front braking by altering the amount of friction between the nylon washer and a face of the one way bearing... run it too loose and you get little or no brakes on the front wheels or too tight and you effectively lock out the oneway (and it's benifits)
Setting my FAB (had it for over a year now) is the final adjustment before I race as it has such a large role in how my car turns in, it just makes the car feel so well balanced - I'd never consider running without it.

It sounds good to all CATSX owners 'cause I've got homemade TDS on my CAT for more than one year already and it help me a lot to set balance brakes torque on the front

Thank you very much, I see what you guys mean. So how does one Fab his own?

Follow the thread in Oliv966's post and it will give you a good guide.... it includes a few photos which tell all. You will need a lathe and drill press or you need to know someone who has one.
