Default Shocks and springs help please!!

I have an '02 SS and makes 900 to the tire. I'm currently running Bilstien shocks and Eibach springs, and the car wont hook for crap. What is a good direction to go with shocks and springs that would give me the best shot at hooking? Thanks.

serious? with 900rwhp, you should be looking into tubs, ladder bars, essentially back-halving the car...

X2. You will have to do some serious work to get that kind of power to hook. Sounds fun though

I have a boost controller so it's not all hitting at once. It's a street car and I don't plan on tubs etc. Just looking to upgrade shocks and springs. Any help?

Jeez 900 horse is crazy on stock stuff. I guess get some LCA's and panhard bar and some LCA relocation brackets and stuff. Then you might not spin the tires as bad.

Already have all of that. Just looking for some shock and spring advice. Are QA1 double adjustables worth the money or QA1 single adjustabe shocks fine? They are double the price for the doubles and would like some advice from someone that runs that much horsepower on the street.
