Default Need suspension upgrade

Well I feel like I'm at the point where a suspension upgrade is needed....my best ET is 11.01 and now that I put a cam in I wanna upgrade my suspension for my expected lower ETs. Got different opinions as what to go with n stuff but I'm still unsure. Opinions?

Hello, i would suggest lower control arms, relocation brackets, a torque arm and a torque arm relocation bracket. The lower control arms will help your car become more consistant, the relocation brackets will allow you to adjust your instant center for better weight transfer. Upgrading your torque will make the car more consistant and will increase the cars performance due to less flex. As far as the torque arm relocation bracket that will save yout tranny from getting busted and our bracket has adjustment holes to raise or lower your torque arm which affects how hard your car will launch. There are several other pieces that you can add to increase your performance also. If you have any questions about any of our products or need help choosing which ones are right for you please give me a call.

Hello,
The lower you go on the relocation brackets give you better traction! What we have experienced is that some people position them to there own performance satisfaction! If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be glad to help.
Thanks Again
