Drag Launch Kit


So im looking at the Eibach pro launch kit but im wondering if its even worth it to get them, the main reason i wanted them is because i was always under the influece that they dropped the car 1 1/2 inches and i figured that would be fine since its droped 2 inches now and i love the look so its would still sit nice.. now im thinking about just throwing the stock springs back on and running some 90/10s in the front. to save a little money if drag springs are just going to sit at stock ride height anyways ...


What do you guys think i should do ?any one have a nice Street/Strip setup on there car now that they are happy with ? Thanks Alot !

If you're into drag racing go ahead and get the launch kit. I'm going to get them this summer. I'm pretty sure it won't noticably lower your car at all though.

They're shocks. If you get adjustable ones they help.

People usually use them in conjunction to springs but you can use them with the stock ones. They would be a big upgrade on the stock shocks.

Get a set of 4. I wouldn't get them until I got upper and lower control arms and springs though.

Read step #4. How To Improve a Suspension for Drag Racing | eHow.com They help but I wouldn't get them unless you were really into racing.
