He wants to know what he can do for his suspension to lower ET's.
I've heard Subframes help a little bit on launches, then again they add weight so it could even out in the end. But man do they look cool and help you turn like a sonafa*****. :D
I guess the only other thing you could do is a torque arm but they are pricey.

BMR Xtreme rear swaybar, or at least a 1Le bar w/ poly bushings/endlinks. when I did this, I noticed better traction off the line, and no rear twist like before. it'll squat evenly, placing force on both rear tires. after that, torque arm and sfc's.
2001 Arctic White Firebird<br />More mods than I\'m allowed to list!
I run:
no front sway bar
Mild steel light weight lower a arms
Mild steel drag light weight k member
skinnies
no strut tower brace
poly torque arm mount
poly tranny mount
hotchkis boxed trailing arms
hotchkis pan hard rod
rk sport tubular sub frames
stock shocks
sotck springs
I have not messed with torque arms but I'm told that this is something I really need to do this winter so I'll update when I get there.
I also plan on getting the upper mild steel light weight a arms
Maybe at some point I'll upgrade the rear sway bar
My mid 11 second ls1 people swear by Hal shocks!!!
One consistently pulls the tires off the ground 6-12 inches!!!
