Thanks, did you do all four corners or just the rears? Also are you running a slick and if so what springs are you using? Just getting started with drag racing so thanks for your patience!

No problem, just the rears, stock struts up front. I run eibach lowering springs, with subframe connectors and FTBR kit with IRS brace. I will be running 27x10.5 16in et streets this year.

I will be adding flsfc soon. I already have the ftbr bushings installed with an lpw cover. What is the benefit or drawbacks of running a 26, 27, or 28" tire?

How are the qa1's holding up against the oem shocks on the street or in the corners?

you need to match up with your hp and your gears..weight etc. kind of got to try it out.

if its a 1/4 car you need to see where your mph and rpm are when you cross the line vs your powerband..peak tq etc.
