Default Suspension Question

Will having a bad suspension have a negative affect on my ET? My car is literally lob sided. The right side is about 2 inches lower than the left? I couldn't cut better than 13.6@105 (without the stall). I just want to know if I lost a .1 or .2

Obviously suspension has a lot to do with the launch of your car.. it helps with the weight transfer and distribution of power... that's why some people remove the front sway bar. I've heard some fairly decent stories about the eibach's as for looks/drag performance.. I don't think they are top in Drag suspension by far, but if you want your car to look good + not be terrible on the strip... I'd say go with those, you can probably find a pair used on here for a hundred bucks? GL with your times...
