Switching Gears....

My car is street/strip with a stock suspension. It drives me crazy to feel the suspension "eating" HP that should go to the ground. My problem is this; with all the various things I can do to upgrade the suspension, I don't know where to start. Keeping in mind my use is street/strip, where can I get the most bang for my buck?

I have heard a lot of good things about the FRPP upper control arms. they will tighten up your launch and reduce wheel hop. they have stiffer than stock bushings but they are not so stiff that they cause axle bind. And probably the best part you gan get them usually
for under $80 shipped.

Id definately go for some lower control arms and the uppers would be nice too since they are cheap. Pro3i makes some that id prolly buy. www.partshopper.com sells them. They are pretty well priced as well. The steeda ones are ok too I hear. The only negative thing is that ive seen a pic where one broke. Subframe connectors are a must as well.
