Default what springs would be better?

I'm looking for the best launch in a straight line without sacrificing control in turns and maybe upping the control in turns a bit, but ultimately I want a good launch and superb straight line
for what I want. which one would you recomend for me?

Steeda superlight sport springs?

Steeda superlight drag springs?

I'm also widening my rims to 245/30/18's and popping megabyte lower C/A's in

basically looking for a flawless launch once the intercooled vortech goes on

i would think that the drag spring wouldnt ride that good since that are for drag use...is it for a daily car?

idk man leave it stock, do the U/L control arms......i did the whole spring thing and i am really thinking about at least swapping out the rear springs for the stock ones...i hear drag springs ride like a tank

I would probably just get an eibach pro kit, it's a subtle drop that still leaves a decent amount of spring forgiveness. Get some u/l control arms and some full length sub-frames, with some slicks or d/r's I bet you could pull a 1.8
