unless you are having major issues hooking up while drag racing, both are really not worth the money.

LCAs definitely make a difference launching. The stock LCAs might as well be spaghetti noodles. They twist on launch and severely hurt 60' times on any high RPM launch. I didn't find that the UCA was worth the install.

2005-2009 all the same, but if you don't want lowering springs I'm not sure the shocks/struts themselves are going to make much improvement. DO NOT install the GT500 springs on your car, they are made for the heavier GT500 and will actually raise your GT higher.
