Default What suspension is a must at over 1000 RWHP??

Like the title says, what do I have to have at that power range? I have a budget lol, but I know it takes a lot of money to build something like this, just in the works right now

Come back when you get 1000hp.

Not that I don't believe you or anything like that, but I would think that someone who has 1000rwhp would have the knowledge and resources to determine a safe suspension to run. Either that, or have a competent shop that knows how to build the suspension.

Not only that, but how do you do 1000rwhp on a budget? If I was putting down that kind of power, I doubt I'd be skimping on the suspension, brakes, drivetrain, driver, etc.

I just wanted suggestions on what shop was the best when it came to that, I dont have to skimp, I just don't want to waste a lot more money than I have to, but I will take you up on that challange on coming back when I have 1000 RWHP, so I will figure it out on my own, thanks

Any shop that can put in a cage should be able to help you. It takes a lot to get 1000 to the ground. If I were you id just back half the car and be done with it.

wolfe/billingsly/madman parts.

but, having all the suspension in the world isnt going to make you hook, if you dont know how to tune the suspension to the track conditions.
