Suspension. With all the horsepower in the world, you would do nothing but spin the tires.

what are your current mods? Stock, then engine mods. With my mods, suspension is next.

if you have a stock car goahead and put it in to the motor if your car is already pretty quick build the suspention.


hp and suspention is a balancing act. you can build a nice suspention but its not gonna do that much with a stock motor agian you can build the motor and end up not doing any thing on stock suspention.

+1.. if your car is stock put it into the engine... gears + tune would be the first things i would do... if you're not stock - go to suspension.
