Default help i need some 1200lbs springs

i can't find anything when i try to search so hopefully some one can help me out. i would like some 1200 lb springs for my 94 civic coupe . what would my options be. it's pretty much just a drag car at the track . (full interior still) next week with more boost it should be well in the high 400 hp range. right now it's at 375 on 9.5lbs. and it squats hard of the line . i would like to fix that problem. i already have coil overs so i'm just looking for springs right now. i may do a full drag setup in the near future

yeah call Ground Control, they've got ERS springs of all rates.

or you can call hypercoil, who also have springs of many dimensions and rates.

I feel really guilty that i didn't buy ERS's for my new suspension setup, but koni was offering hypercoils with it so i figured i'd keep it simple.

still feel guilty though

next set of springs will be ERS for sure!!!
