Get the suspension stuff. You have to lay the foundation before you build the house. The suspension will improve track times more than the other 2. Looks and weight savings can come later. If you can do it sneak the skinnies in before the hood and the rears.

good point but it's just a matter of what order the items come in, to me, im happy with 1.6/1.7 60's im not so much worried about the rear suspension as i was with the GMS control arms and lowering springs. The rear suspension will be finished this fall but i want to see what i can get the car down to with alot of weight savings ie carbon fiber hood and or light drag wheels, fact of the matter i got 7.9's consistantly with the new k member, imagine another 100 lbs off the car, 7.7's or even 7.6's with a quick 60'....

Then get the hood and the wheels and quit F*ckin around! Bring your car to the weigh station by my house.

Get the skinnies first and then work on the rest. Your 60ft is looking good. GO FOR IT ALL!!! LOL

By the way....tenths of seconds dont come off that quickly...it may take all the mods you're suggesting to get to a 7.8

im pretty sure the car will go 7.8's the way it is now, remember my quickest et so far is 7.92, i can see 7.7's obviously with the rest of the bolt ons pretty easily but 7.6's will take work, im gonna try and take the car as far as i can with out touching the tune, boost, and/or short block...
