-bolt in subframe connectors
-panhard bar
-torque arm
-bolt in lower control arm relocation brackets
-torque arm relocaton brackets
-strut tower brace

dude, with 700rwhp... id put every suspension mod you can think of...

I would go with weld in SFCs and relo brackets over anything that is bolted...Also an adjustable TA mounted to the tunnel and not on the trans (most TAs have a DS loop integrated into the TA), adjustable LCAs, and PHB...You really need adjustability especially when you go with an aftermarket rear to help square the rear and set the pinion angle, which is critical to hooking and driving vibration free...I am not a big fan of the strut (shock) tower brace for drag racing...

You also have a choice of sperical rod ended parts and/or poly bushed stuff...I use the rod ended and its really not too bad on the street and you get zero binding like some get from the poly stuff...Some love the poly and get the stuff to work great and it is quieter if you keep them lubed...With 700rwhp I'd use the rod ends, but thats my personal preference...Either way you need the adjustable stuff...

You will also benefit from QA1 adj shocks and springs front and rear..I am told that the front spring rate should be 275 and the rear 150 for good drag racing/street set ups. These will be my next suspension mod as you can adjust compression and rebound and they greatly help launching especially with high hp cars...

K members are a good idea for weight savings/load transfer...not a necessity but you can save a lot of weight if you go with the upper/lower A arms, too...

I use Spohn stuff because they make great stuff at good prices and they are good people to deal with...I live an hour from them and pop in from time to time...They make almost everything in house and it works...

Hope this helps a little, sounds like you have a beast on your hands...
