TPI Strut Tower Brace

I want to add a strut tower brace to an 88 Iroc with a 305 TPI - is there one that bolts on without drilling into the strut towers?

all the ones I have seen you have to drill... theres really no other way unless you could bolt it to the actual strut top somehow then it probably wouldn't transfer as much force due to you would only be pushing with a part of the bar as a contact patch instead of the whole foot print.

Yep, all of them that I've seen you have to drill the holes.

Will a TPI STB clear TBI as well? I know they make both but was going to get one and am planning on switching to a TPI/SR later on so I only want to buy one. Thanks
