For starters, lower control arms, panhard rod, and adjustable torque arm will all benefit your quest for traction. Also, subframe connectors will strengthen up the chassis. A good set of struts/shocks will also firm up your ride, both QA1 and Koni are good manufacturers of adjustable struts/shocks.

I would think you would want some sticky tires and maybe a rear control arm relocation bracket to make sure your planted. I would ask around in the "drag racing technique" forum. I'm sure there's a buttload of info in there.
