Drag suspension/Mickey Thompsons
 
Well I got the drag suspension. My car looks like a damn 4x4, but it does hook like crazy. I only spin part of 1st gear now if I go from idle w/ street tires.

My car doesnt feel nearly as fast now. It handles more boatish, and now that it hooks it just doesnt feel as fast.

I put on the M/T ET's and drove it around tonight. It launches from about 5500 with not much spin but it feels maybe that the clutch is slipping? I dunno it doesnt slam off the line that hard. And it actually feels as if it kinda bogs when I hit 2nd hard coming out of first w/ the ET's on. It drops to about 4000rpm, a little low in the powerband.
