I've done a ton of bracing and stiffening on my base 2018 GT Mustang and its huge what it does. The base GT doesn't come with shock tower or the shock tower to firewall braces so I added them. Then under the car I added the subframe braces and the front k-brace. Then I added the subframe bushing supports, then the ford racing control arms, track pack shocks, and slightly stiffer springs, and on and on.
Even on that pig the difference was absolutely humongous and I did each modification in isolation. One upgrade at at time, meaning I know what a difference each little step made. Its interesting to do it that way as others who didn't do the modifications one at a time (or their car came with some level of factory bracing) will say "well it doesn't make any difference". They will state that opinion as fact, but it's not true. If you wanted to measure how much faster it could make a talented driver on a track I guess its not too large a difference with respect to time, but in terms of how the car feels and the fun to drive factor, its enormous.
