Does the car have traction issues? I would invest in a set of drag radials and you should be there.

well i'm not sure if it will have traction issues after all the mods listed are done. currently i have horrible traction, but the LCA , panhard rod, relocation brackets, and the posi are not installed yet, not to mention the tires i have right now are bald p215/15 goodyear eagles. im hoping that these things will make a noticeable diference.

Tires will get you further than suspension mods will. I cut 1.82's on street tires with stock suspension.

Yeah definitely get some drag radials or something along those lines. I threw on a set of ET Street slicks on with my old TPI setup, and dropped from 14.6 to 14.1. Downers Grove, eh? What track do you go to?
