Is it this set? http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CM...ComboContents/

There are two of them, both priced at $729.95. Can't really tell the difference.
And you said I could swap out the springs in that set for, say, these?

Worst come to worst I can buy the
Hotchkis Sport Suspension 3001 - Hotchkis Sport Suspension Mustang Delta Caster/Camber Plates, the Rear/Front shocks, maybe the Eibach Pro-Kit and wait until I get some more money and get the rest.

yea thats the kit and holy hell thats expensive compared to when i bought it. if you do a comparitive cost from individual to the kit price you save like 13% but if you wanna buy each piece for full price be my guest.

yes you can swap on the springs, they'll put on the discount price for the kit onto those springs so it should only be 100 dollars or so more.thats how i bought my kit, i swapped mine out for eibach drag launch springs.

How do those drag launch springs hold up?
Maybe I'll go with those. Lemme do some more research, seeing as my car WILL be a Street(During the week)/Strip(On the weekends) car.
Thanks for the help by the way.

Edit: Any input on the SLP Loudmouth exhaust? I've heard good things, but am looking for some more information.
If I can't afford that whole set(Want to do everything in one swoop. Not a part here, part there), I'm trying to figure out what else to go with. I need to do an oil-change(Haven't had money to change it since the rebuild. Cringe away), Alternator, Power Steering..was thinking Gears or something.

drag launches are fine for everyday driving. i have no problems with them. and you have tons of adjustability to make the car ride how you want to witht he strange struts/shocks. you can make it feel like you have solid steele for suspension or riding on clouds. its up to you.
