Cool How Much Will Subframe Connecters Improve 1/4 Mile Time?

IF I INSTALL SUBFRAME CONNECTERS AND BMR LOWER CONTROL ARMS W/RELOCATION BRACKETS ON MY CAR HOW MUCH WOULD I KNOCK OFF MY 1/4 MILE TIME? I'M RUNNING 12.54@108 RIGHT NOW.

Depends. Lots of variables. Bear in mind you will be adding weight.

You should think more along the lines of, "If I put frame connectors on my car I won't have to worry about twisting the car."

Good Luck

The only thing about installing SFC's is that it might actually hurt traction a little. It allows for less chassis flex, which actually can increase spin. However the LCA's and relocation brackets will more than make up for it.

My thoughts exactly. I added SFC's a few months ago, I certainly wasn't expecting them to decrese my times. I would just like to be able to keep closing my doors normally
