Front suspension
I've got just a typical bolt on/nitrous car with lca's, ta, swaybar in the back competition 3 way shocks on 50/50, and subframes, and a 3600 converter. What kind of shocks/ springs are working for people? No kmember up front. Keeping in mind I don't have a huge budget.

I have the Strange single adjustable coilovers and they shaved 2.5 - 3 tenths off my et's. Other than going with slicks, this was the single biggest improvement I've made to the car.
After doing the research, I liked the way the Strange S/A shocks only adjust the rebound while the compression stays the same regardless of the "click" setting. The QA1 single adjustables get looser on rebound and compression for each "click" setting. If I ever get to a point where I'm pulling the front tires, I want the added safety of having full compression stiffness, even on a loose rebound setting.

I understand. However, If you're running really fast and get the nose way up there, does a stiff compression make the front end want to "bounce" down the track?
