Wondering what's the best drag suspension mod's for our car in order? I can think of a few but don't know how much they'll help or the order they belong(more impact, weight transfer/tire traction)?
Some I know are Subframe Connectors, LCA, UCA, Rear Sway bar, etc. and what gains in tenths or 60ft time do you think each will give on a mildy modded car and gains on a car with gears and a T-Lok?

Thanx ahead of time

If you plan to launch hard heres some things you can do to most any vehicle to get it to hook up better (rwd).

First get some soft squatter springs (drag specific), some 90/10 shocks/struts and remove or disconnect the front sway bar. That along with some subframe connectors and slicks would make a world of difference in how hard the car bites. With slicks you could be in the 1.6-1.8 60ft range fairly easily.
But keep in mind that when you do this type of modification its street manners arent going to be as pleasant. It wont handle nearly as well as it would with factory suspension.

PS: Id only disconnect the front sway bar at the strip, then when youre done reconnect it. Mustangs are literally all over the road with out it upon hard acceleration.

Ex.- Subframe connectors-5 tenths
-rear sway bar-7 tenths
etc.

Can I run no front sway bar on the street if I have Steeda rear upper and lower control arms and subframe connectors?
Also, how hard is it to disconnect the front sway bar andhow do I do it? Thanx
