What's your setup? Hooking on the track takes drag radials or slicks, no suspension kit is gonna make your car hook! Best thing you can do for suspension trick, is remove the front sway bar. Helps front end lift and a little wieght off the front.

Hmmm got yours pulled Mike? Didn't know that. How does the car handle at higher speeds?

Go with BMR's 15" drag racing setup for the rear you will be amazed. Yes suspension will help tremendously, you still have to be able to use it though, the human factor can never be eliminated.

When it comes to suspension kits though, they do help some hooking but their main job is to keep the axle hop under control. Trailing arms and toe rods would be minimum I would do and then bushings.

That's the thing I have axel hop like crazy and it feels really bad I'm sure I can get the tires to hook just let out a little air and I'll see about removing the front sway bar my car is pretty much stock I've got a slp Cai with a efi live stealth kill tune by Patrick guerra and just some 315/35 Pirelli rossos on the back which I freaking love car dynoed at 377 hp and 375 tq
