Hey guys im sure these posts are very frequent here but im doing suspension mods on my 2000 ws6. has H/C/Stall already. added lca'sm a strut brace, and a phb doing the relocation brackets next followed by sub frame connects. thinking if i need to upgrade shocks and springs to help run a better time.
im looking for a great drag setup dont mind if streets a lil rougher than stock.
heres what im considering:

springs: stranos front and back should lower it a lil over an inch
rates front 550 lbs/in rear 150 lbs/in working rate

as far as shocks want koni yellows front and back.

what can i expect from this setup other than parting with a few weeks pay haha
or what in your opinion would you choose for this setup?
Thanks

 

Stranos aren't a good drag spring. They were designed for AutoX since that's how Strano runs his car. They are definitely not a drag spring.

If you're looking for straight drag racing suspension set-up, I would look at different springs...

 

But as far as non-specific drag springs mine are some of the best. Mostly because I don't run them super low, or run real high rear rates which means the car will still hook. See, traction and power down are important for me too, not just drag racers.

 

i do not want my car lowered too much either. are the springs im considering more of a performance handling option?
Thanks for the fast reply Sam!

 

what would you recommend for my setup lots of racing but also driving it around town and cruising. i thinking the koni yellows would be a good choice. whats your take on springs?

 

Konis with stock springs. The front konis on the lower circlip and the heater hose mod in the rear.

 

Thanks for the tips!

 

I love my strano springs. I wouldn't stray anyone away from buying them. They're great. But as far as a straight drag setup that's not what I'd go with.

If you're looking for just better all around handling with a nice lowering amount (not slammed like sportlines) and going to the track occasionally, Stranos would definitely be my choice, obviously since that's what I went with. Lol.

 

remove you front sway bar when drag racing,the Strano springs will work great.
