Sub Frame Connectors

i am thinking of getting some subframe connectors -will this help me with the loss of traction on the line (other than stickier tires)? Or do i need a panhard bar or something else adn what should i pay for this? Also, do you guys get it welded or bolt it on?

thanks

You're gonna want to weld them in definitely. Boxed sfc's have a little bit lower ground clearance but stiffen up the car more. even with regular SFC's you will notice a heck of a difference. Check out this thread:

Control arms and relocation brackets will plant your tires better than subframe connectors. Ideally you'll want the whole setup- subframe connectors, control arms, relocation brackets and panhard bar.

I would say get the subframe connectors first to reduce flex but since your goal is to improve your holeshot control arms and relocation brackets are more ideal.

SFCs are a great mod, but don't help much in the traction department.

LCAs seem to be the best mod for traction from what I have read.
