This beam will protect the intercooler, Oil cooler, Radiator, a/c condencer and that tree that you decided to hit head on.
With out that beam your engine could land up in your lap. Just saying

Maybe I should have phrased my post differently. All I care about is intercooler protection. I doubt that the only thing keeping the engine out of the passenger compartment is the crash bar. I'm sure it helps, but it's not the only thing preventing me from getting a face full of motor. Also, it'll be pretty hard to verify that it does or doesn't make a difference without substantial crash testing, and I hope you don't plan on wrecking 5-10 turbod Zs to see if it works.
Don't take this the wrong way, I'm not bashing your product. I want one. If you tell me it 100% works with a GTM intercooler I'll buy one from you right now.
