Default Evaluate my set-up.

What am i missing? What do i need to change?

(Obviously i am missing a good DR and a rearend. Those will come before the summer. I'm in the preperation phase for those two things right now so try to over look them. )

Car is a M6, it will be run off a two-step for launch control purposes. M/T DR's and 9" w/ 3.73's. It will probably never see trach time, it will be all street time so i have to keep that in mind.

BMR Trac Bar w/ Spohn bolt-on Tunnel mount
Boxed LCA's
Relocation brackets
Adj. PHB
Comp. Engineering rear shocks
Stock rear springs

My next thing is:
QA1's up front
300lb. springs
BMR rear sway bar

With an M6 I would run at least a 4.11 gear.

I would buy adjustable LCA's

Make sure if you get QA1's you buy the "R" valved race shock, not the "F".

You forgot nitrous

I wouldn't see a problem with those parts on the street, my DD hasn't had heater or a/c for 10 years, also hasn't had a ebrake cable for about 9 1/2 years since I broke the drive shaft and tore it up.

Some of us don't care much about the extras, as long as the car goes fast, it drives straight and stops and keeps all the tires on I could care less about the rest

*mine still has a stereo even
