Default What to do next?

Just kinda tossing some ideas around.
Car has
Eps226-230 cam
241s that just got a valve job and took .015 off them
eBay headers
Tsp y pipe
Mangnaflow car back. ( no cats )
3.73 gears
Monster level 2 clutch. (Ordered and on the way )


Car currently runs pretty consistent 12.8-12.9 on my 275 40 18 regular old street tires and completely stock suspension. All facto. ry components. Nothing ever replaced. It wheel hops pretty bad off the line. Stock clutch wasent helping. It has roughly 75k miles on it. (Its a 02 formula). What should I do next. I'm sure it has plenty more left in it. Keep in mind I like to take this car on long cruises. It's not strictly a drag car but a street car i drive to the track. Blow down a few passes and go home. Then take it to work in the morning if I feel like it.

Which torq arm are we talkin about. Keep in mind I don't want to make the car terrible to drive. Tires are defiantly on my list as the rears are pretty shot as they are now

Lower control arms with relocation brackets should help your wheelhop issues. I would also recommend some subframe connectors. None of this will affect your normal driveability
