will only hook launching from idle, Every time I would try and stall it up is would only cut a 1.9 or worse 60ft.
front suspension is stock except the Eibach 2 in. lowering springs.
I have bad motor mounts, want to go turbo way down the road.
Was looking at replacing the k-member and mounts.
and getting a front shock/coil-over kit.
I want to get the 60 ft's in the 1.45-50 range.
Goal is to get into the 10's.
any suggestions on brands etc..?

i would do QA1 or Strange coil overs in the front. Remove the front sway bar. Replacing your motor mounts should definitely be a priority also. The tubular k member is a great mod as it drops weight and makes the car much easier to work on from underneath. for the rear i would ditch the lowering springs and install stock springs.

Which QA1 rear shocks do you have? Any other suspension parts on the car other than what is listed?

There is a few more parts that will benefit you for sure, such as a set of front shocks from Afco, Strange, or Viking. Then you will most likely benefit from a set of LCAs and relocators, and a short version torque arm will help hit the radials a bit harder at the launch. A k-member isn't a bad idea by any means, but other than weight loss and and ease of accessibility to the exhaust and other engine parts there won't be much of a loss in et's.
I will strongly suggest to lose the lowering springs right now... When you get a good set of front shocks(coil-overs) they will be ride height adjustable. Replace your rear springs with a good ol' set of stock springs with the hose mod done on top.
Your 60s are not too bad right now, but with the right parts on the car we can get your goals achieved and enable you to go much father in the future.
Give us a call... We can get you set up with the right combo of parts for you and we have the guaranteed lowest prices and highest quality on the market.
