I'd say at this point, unless you've got a massive engine in there that you need help launching, suspension mods from this point on would be more effective in changing cornering and handling characterstics, not straight line 1/4 mile times.

I could very well be wrong though, that's just my guess.

well since his car is lowered, he shouodl STRONGLY! consider relocation brackets especialy if you have wheel hop, a torque arm and LCA's will also help with traction. and of course some sticky tires.

I agree with Dewey. Get some LCA relocation brackets.
