z10 traction bars, and energy susp motor mount inserts, worked for me . just gotta keep an eye on the bars to make surte they stay tight , they loosen up from time to time.

I put the jimfab setup on my car and dropped my 60' times by .2 seconds. However, the lack of wheel hop turned into wheel spin so i had to drop my launch RPM to get out of the hole better, but still, .2 is worth it to me.

I did the ES bushings and it helped a little then I got the Z10's and it helped a little more
but I still had mad wheel hop on my 16 inch street tires 200 whp/147 TQ
My hasport mounts helped a little more!
I got slicks and the wheel hop is gone
I never thought they would help that much but it was the best $800 I spent

Z10 rule, just dont put them on EK, when you turn full and brake, you have no brakes! They bind! Its crazy scary!
