Setting suspension for launching? My car doesn't seem to hook like it should but I have no idea to adjust the suspenion and torque arm to hook like it should. Here is my setup. If someone could give me advice on how to set the suspension it would be helpful. KYB's adjustable from 0-9.
BMR Front and Rear Sway bars with BMR Adjustable Torque Arm
BMR 1" Lowering Springs
KYB Front and Rear Adjustable Shocks
BMR Weld in Rectangular Sub Frame Connectors
Metco Billet Relocated Lower control Arms
ANy help would be appreciated! I can't get the car to hook like I think it should.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news. You went from a 30mm front bar to a 32mm, your rear spring rates have ultimately increased by over 50% not to mention the lower Cg and I have know idea what those shocks are doing to compression rates during rebound adjustments and all that is trying to control 394rwhp and alot of low down tq.... Those parts are not useful. Try softening the rebound on the KYB's and lower the rear tire pressure. Maybe someone will chime in and help with the torque arm adjustment.... I feel you have an uphill battle. Good luck.
