Gave the stock set-up a good test Friday at the drags with the air-bag and sticky`s and all worked out great !!!
Absolutly No hop and way too much traction for the gears.
Going to have to bump up to 4.56`s.
With the new tires it grabs so good that the RPM won`t rise fast enough !!
And the new muffler set-up ????
STILL not as good as open headers !!
It`s hard to believe that these 3" straight through mufflers hold back the ponies.
Going to test it with the open headers up the street from the barn to see if indeed this is the case.
Stay tuned,,,,,,dq

I think all cars could benefit from air bags from what I heard. I am planning on giving them a try sometime.

I think the air bags can help a bit in cornering, etc.

For the price you can`t go wrong !!!! And yes,,,It will help in cornering also,,,
Some racers just use one bag in the right spring,,,but since you buy two bags install them both so you can gain max adjustability !!,,,,dq
