Probably not much. But is your car is lowered at all? I'd suggest relocation brackets at the same time. Oh, but they will look nicer!

Do the brackets when you do the springs for sure. May want to spring for the ~ $110. for the brackets now and kill 2 birds with one stone.

Your drag times. Do not honestly know but they should help.

May even want to consider a nice torque arm.

LCA are suppose to help your 60' times by reducing any wheel hop and helping you get better traction since they don't flex like stock LCAs.
