Default Suspension set up...

I have a dc integra almost done with a turbo set up which I guestimate will put out about 500 to the wheels. Im currently on h&r sport prings and stock struts as car was pretty much stock previous to the turbo build. The car will see the streets on drag radials, but I will be running 24.5 mt slicks at the track. Im guessing I will be needing a coil over set up since the slicks won't clear with my current drop. What coil over set up would be recommended for track use on weekends and street driving during the week?

Omni powers are definitly the way to go for the track but i also keep my tein ss's for the rear on the street. The omni's get a bit rough for daily driving...

goodluck trying to get omni's. there have been on back order for quite a while now.

I personally went with function and forms drag setup with 18k rear and 14k front

I would just get some Omni sports. The spring rates on the drag setups are not going to be road friendly, ESPECIALLY in the rain. With the rear of the car that stiff its very easy for it to come around on you. Just depends on your budget. Maybe get some GC coilovers and buy some Eibach drag springs for the rear and switch them out when you go to the track. May be better just to find some omni drag rears and swap those out.
