I wanted to get a set of Comp Engineering Struts for my 88 GTA, how will these help in my launch and traction, will I notice it and will it help drop my ET....also what does it mean when they say 10/90 ,2/80 adjustability settings. Will they be good on the street or only for racing purposes? all help is much appreciated - AARON

I am run 70/30 front lakewood drag struts, 50/50 rear shocks also. i was going to get the competition engineering ones from Jegs but at the last minute i went with Lakewood. my car is a daily driver also. the ride isnt really bad and i used alot of poly bushings in my rear suspension.
