Default 944 turbo cabrio scuttle shake?

Hi guys,
A friend of mine who owns a 92 turbo cabrio is looking to know if there are any strut bars or braces that can lessen the problem. He had mentioned something about a strut bar that fitted underneath the engine but doesn't know if it works or not.

Anybody here know what will work best for him?

Cheers guys in advance

I have a suggestion for you John. I haven't personally used this brace, yet, but know of a few 968 cab guys who have. I've read in the archives that they benefited from having this underneath brace support. I hope some of them will chime in and give you their own personal experiences too. Hope this helps.

the supra targa guys had a bar that bolted side to side, behind the front seats- along the floorboard over the center driveshaft hump from rocker to rocker. That helped the car from wiggling as much when the targa was out.
