Default Dc Suspension upgrades

So I got a 95 integra 2 door full interior that's turbo only making 257hp 225tq and I want to beef up the suspension/Brakes so when I get on it , there is no squatting and keep the power to the ground.. The car feel great for the mods I have already done for the power I'm making but my new motor will be 700-750 hp , so I wanna make sure my suspension can handle it.. For now I wanna do Suspension , then after I'll do Brake system..

Omni power coilovers
kyb Agx shocks
skunk 2 pro series camber kits front and rear
Energy suspension bushing kit
Asr brace with Neuspeed lower tie bar
function 7 Rear Lower Control Arms
Brembo Cross Drilled Rotors with PBR Cermaic Brake Pads
Russell SS lines
High Performance Brake fluid
Brand new OEm Rs Master Cylinder
Brand New Oem Clutch Maser cylinder
Brand new Oem HUbs front and rear
Arp Extended Wheel Studs
BWR Extended Lug Nuts

Its going to be able to do full boost at 750 hp.. I'm not going to drive around the streets with 750 hp and on the weekends it will be at the track..

Any Help on SUSPENSION upgrades will be greatly appreciated!!

your suspension can handle, but you have to worry about your axles and tranny

What makes you think your suspension couldn't "handle" it?

"Handle" is pretty vague.

This is something you ask BEFORE you buy the parts., not after. Don't understand the need to ask the question if the parts are already bought and in your possession. At this point you install them, if you already hadn't, and find out.

KYB AGXs? Pass.

Drag cars need drag oriented parts. Not excess weight of rear tie bars and braces. There is NO need for a camber kit. 750whp WITHOUT a traction bar? ... lol. You should also be using Civic DX brakes or something lighter than Integra brakes for drag racing. KYB anything... fails.
