ss part might cost more actually since it would be a gm part vs a bmr/etc. for much less

at the last auto-x there was an LS1 camaro running a stock class and I think all he really had was Hoosier tires. The driver was an excellent driver, and the times he was getting were damn awesome especially what he was up againist overall at the event. I think the only faster car was an acutal kart

It all depends on what you want to do autoX or rr or just on the street like on ramps and stuff like it. Bigger rims and good R compound tires made a good diff but it just showed me how bad the body roll was. So i went to the next step and that was sway bars WOW what a diff it was like night and day the car was like so much more pedictable I went to BMR for those great mod. After that i went to shocks and lowering springs H&R's and bilsteins it just added to the way the car went through the corner those componets are the braines of your suspention and your car going on a deit. There is alot of diff compos and prices so test and tune for what you want out of your ride.
