Suspension setup opinions for my 08 GT?

Easiest answer would have been look up lindertw threads, read and follow, he has done what other have that worked and has achieved stellar results
I am doing similar this year, all bmr, strange 10 ways and sticky tires

thanks - but I must caveat that the D/A and track prep at Maryland International Raceway is also a factor

Yeah, the track I run at is a small family owned 1/8 mile track. And to be honest, it's complete shit lol

Don't skimp on the relo brackets and LCAs. They are worth every dollar and some. I am only lowered with P springs 1 inch drop and didn't think I needed the relos. Boy was I wrong. I make 100+ passes a year and the car handles so much better now. Strange adjustables too. They are a must have.

My springs are on backorder unfortunately. Just gonna wait it out and order my viking shocks and bmr relos in the meantime. I know this is a long shot, but how much do you guys think I can pick up with the suspension mods? My best time last year was an 8.91 with the sportlines, airaid intake, bama tune and psi at 18. Gonna be running street tires still.

prob little to no improvement if you're still on street tires

Damn really? Slicks are kind of out of the question considering all of my money is going to suspension.

Been a year, got any updates on your progress?

Man you brought this back from the dead lol.

My best last year was an 8.47 in the 1/8th.
Last year's setup:

Airraid cai, pypes offroad x pipe, 2013 variant Cobra Jet springs, front sway bar removed, bmr lca's, bmr relo brackets with 15x8 and 15x3.75 Racestars and 275/50/15 Mickey Thompson et street radials. 5 speed.

Over the winter I added Ford Racing 4.10s, Bbk tuned length shorties and a wot box.

Unfortunately the past 2 times I've been to the track, I haven't run better than an 8.50.

I'm beginning to think I have a few fouled plugs.
