Default Suspension specifically for drag racing

My new project is a 90 CRX si.

it is going to have a B18 turbo and is going to be a full drag car. so my question is what suspension is recomended? im new to teh EF chassis. i check the FAQ and have done ohter searching and have not found any drag racing specific information. i know i need stiff spring rates front and rear but what are other info do people have for me?

this is a budget build but the money will be spent to do it right so i dont want cheap ****.

I know skunk2 used to offer drag springs for the EFs.

you'll need a good shock, and a good traction bar like full race.

Are you racing just for fun, or will compete?

i run the skunk2 drag coilover kit and kyb agx combo, not a ton of track time on it, but its stiff as hell.

the omni power setup is supposed to be good too.

1000lb GCs with Illuminas are pretty bad *** for my friend 60-1. i have the Tockico springs/Illumnias, ETD traction bar, OBX diff, and BFG drags.

car gets out pretty good, but i am soon to be grabbing another pair of Illuminas/1000lb GCs for the rear
