LCA's? with relocation brackets
I took my car (06 GT auto)to the track yesterday. Ran a best of 13.4 at 102 mph.
Mods Cai with a dyno tune, 87 oct(285 hp and 307 lbstq at the rear wheels) 4.10 gears andNitto red line tires 255/ 45/ 18. I am getting some rear wheel hop and lots of wheel spin off the line. Best 60 foot time 2.046 most in the 2.154 ect... area. Would newLCA'swith relocation brackets help my60 foot times???

everybody goes the wrong direction with mods. suspension should be the first ones. a bone stock mustang with lca's/brackets, a good clutch and some sticky tires will spank you all day long. it's a no brainer

With that said, I did my intake and tune first as I could not stand the factory calibration. Then went right into the suspension and bracing. Now the brakes are getting worked on next week hopefully.
I agree with the above, though i haven't finished the suspension yet...d-specs coming soon hopefully.
The first 3 things i did were axle-backs (for sound), front swaybar delete/radiator support, and LCAs with relocation brackets. It helped to set at least a small foundation to build upon. I don't think i'm going to lower it yet but adjustable shocks/struts are definitely going in so i can stiffen the rear and loosen up the front when at the track.
Tires are a big deal (especially if you've done any power mods) so Mickey Thompson ET Streets will be coming to my car by Fall when I plan to go to the track again (after 4.10 gears).

I agree with all you guys but this is the route I went or am going. I use the car for show and will be an occasional track car for 1/4 mile times etc. First in hindsight (which is 20/20) I did it all in reverse. First the body kit and many billet aluminum parts for the engine and interior, tint, than the springs and CAI/dyno tune. Now I am getting a whipple H.O. and than LCA's, UCA, panhard bar, and rear sway bar and 4:10 gears.Next yeara big brake kit in front (14") and 13" Steedas in the backand new clutch and the following year a6 spd T-56 transmission and one piece drive shaft. Seems backwards I know but doing what I can afford first and really just want a S/C asI have never had one. Sorry for high jacking thread.....just bored at work and rambling.
