No, the powerflex bush is like a top hat design so it acts in a similar way, the turner kit will not fit with the Powerflex bushes / there is no need either.

So why aren't you guys using Powerflex Bushes instead of the limiter kits? I have used RTAB PF bushes and RE bushes from day one. Perfect, cheap and no need for a limiter kit band aid.

A Limiter kit is for people who want to stick to using OEM RTABs and wnat to reduce flex/play. You guys have CSL's, lets move up a step and upgrade to PF, RE or other PU RTAB's.

Then You need to go for some AKG Bushings:

Bottom of this page are the 85A bushings
http://www.akgmotorsport.com/catalog...ion%2FBushings

if you continue on to page 6 you will see the 90A & 75D spec RTABs.

I will be getting the diff bushings kit from them when i get some free time, LOL

Ok just to clear things up these turner kits are mainly for use on oem bushes for those who want to retain road handling and comfort(the comfort it has)!!
You can use poly bushes.powerflex are good floflex are cheap so you can fit tms kit just to stiffen them
Or you could go straight to solid bushes that will feel harder on road but perfect on track but new solids don't knock or make excess noise as lawsy points out they only knock when they are worn as billy has mentioned
So its up to you what you want to use on your own car!!

True,

the TMS limiting kit IS better for use with OEM bushes and for those who want to maintain road comfort and add performance at the same time for the track by reducing flex.
