Default chassis/suspension..?'s

Well Ive been looking at subframes, I should be putting down somewhere around 420hp and I was wondering if the BMR boxed SFC's would do the trick??. And also was wondering about the rear control arms, was wondering if the boxed ones or the tubular ones were better and are the lca relocation brackets necassary.

Boxed BMR SFCs will be fine. They're boxed, which is stronger than the tubular ones and will hold up fine.

I was looking for a suspension area but I dont see it.. I figured handling would be the same thing.

Hello,

Either boxed or tubular would be 100% fine for that application. We offer weld in or bolt in set-ups, if you have any questions please ask.
