Good tires are WAY MORE critical for most guys than a bunch of suspension mods.
I have a suspension set-up for handling NOT drag weight transfer and it still can 1.7 60' without any clutch slipping launches (on motor with only around 280rwhp).

I'm not saying that you should not to install drag oriented suspension bits, but if you set it up specifically for drag launches, it won't handle worth a crap. It may be more prudent to find some mods that will help drag launches and help the handling on the street too. Good DRs, full length sub-frames, LCAs, adjustable struts/shocks, etc...

GOOD LUCK!

Without a doubt look into Team Z when it comes to your control arms, relocated upper kit with the double adjustble lowers. Spherical on 3 ends and a steel collar on the axle lower end. Amazing for traction and the relocatied uppers give u the instant center you need. Set pinion angle to -2 degrees and let her rip.
