Well every one wants better handling with there struts well i don't give a F$#^ about handling. I want the ass end to be stiff for traction. What are the best struts or springs out there for this right now. My ass end sinks so much off the line.

The best way to get a stiff ass is to work out!

For real tho. Price is what will determine this. And i think the best STRUT for what you want would be kyb agx. They are adjustable and you could firm them up for the track. But I think you would have better luck by changing coils. And going to an intrigue spring ( which may raise the rear a little too) or go coilover with a higher spring rate to fight squat. ( and you could put the ride hight where you want)

Other options would be spring blockers, or the solid cable track mod) cable is track only and is solid mount and the only give you will have is in your tires.

I will edit with links if I can find them

^^^pretty much said everything, but if racing on a track the rear cable mod is the way to go. Cut down my 60fts by a noticeable difference.

The cable mod is easy to do once set up for it. But it is a TRACK ONLY thing. I will see what I can dig up on it tonight or tomorrow ( tonight would be on phone, tomorrow I should have a PC at work)

intrigue springs are not stiffer then GP springs in fact they are softer giving comfier ride. they are only variable rate and slightly longer then GP/monte/regal springs they will still squat really badly on take off without a firmer strut

well i think the kyb agx will be a must for rear and KYB GR2/Excel G Struts for the front. because its a 07 so any info on springs with more spring rate would be handy
