Would lcas/subframe connectors, help my 1/4 time? Im disappointed with my 1/4 time. Something just doesn't add up, my 60fts arent great, but far from horrible, but yet my 1/8 mile is always an 8.9. Almost like my 60ft isnt corrosponding to my 1/4 time, same with my trap. If one tenth off the 60 equals 2 tenths at the end, that means, for me to be at 13 flat, i would need a 1.8 60ft? i see guys running 2.1-2.2 and running low 13s to 13 flat all day. My shifting is decent, even powershift to see if i was losing time, didnt help. Would suspension help knock some tenths off?

Subframe connectors are not going to get you down the track any faster.
If you have wheelhop, then you need to decide how best to solve it. LCA's may be the asnwer, they may not.
If you dont have wheelhop but you do have a lack of traction, you need stickier tires which may then produce wheelhop which will then need to be addressed.
If you have no wheelhop and you're not smoking the tires, then you probably just need more power.

I'm no expert, but I'd start with some good tires. Mine aren't great (stock size es100's), but I manage a 2 second 60ft and 13.28 quarter. Only mods being a lid, catback and shifter.
