Re: Suspension mods
All of the parts teke mentioned will help tremendously.
My personal setup is an Eibach drag launch kit, BMR adjustable TA, BMR relo brackets and KYB AGX 8 way adjustable shocks.
The KYBs have turned out not to be the best shock for what I intended but I was experimenting with a cheaper shock to see what would happen.
I will be putting QA1s in next time.
The suspension parts were some of the best mods I have done to date but its a trade off, the car has no front sway bar and rolls on bigs n littles most of the time so it don,t handle well. But I beat alot of cars with more horsepower than me just cause I can hand it to em off the line.
The suspension mods will let you use the power you do have now and will help down the line if you up the power level.
Sitting and spinning while watching the other guys tail lights dissapear sucks.
