3.3TT Suspension Suggestions

[SparkyWrench]

I'm planning on taking my car to the drag strip. JB4, CPI on e3x, DIF brace, 275/35 PS4, and unfortunately...RWD. Any suggestions on suspension mods to resolve/lessen tire spin?

I'm thinking I'll need some weight transfer but don't want it all the time...

I'll start off by saying that this is from reading, not experience.

From what I've read proper wheels/tires will give better results then tweaking suspension. Wide tires on 19's/20's with hardly any sidewall isn't great for straight line/drag racing grip as you'll have a wide contact patch, but very small front to back. You'll still want wide, but you're better off using the smallest diameter wheel that'll fit over the brakes and a tire with more sidewall and inflated to give the largest contact patch front to back possible.

I’ve got some decent launches on rwd. Boost by gear on the JB4 helped. I only drop the boost in 1st gear.
I have the aqt collars that’s suppose to help with wheel skip, but it’s been a while since I installed them and I don’t remember them making massive difference.

I recently installed the Mando and sport mode feels planted! Not sure if there is a true benefit though for launch.

I'll have to check it out. Would you say it's worth it?
