Can you provide a list of your current mods and your goals? We can help from there.

Tires and LCA would't be a bad start. I guess it depends on your budget and what you plan on doing with the car depends on which route you should take. Are you looking for just a fun street car, road race or more straight line racing. That last question will change the out come of which parts you want to buy. Trust me buying parts twice sucks.

First off, it's my daily so nothing too insane. But last night I ran a G8 gt with a few mods on it and pretty much didn't have a chance off the line. I eased into it but stood still, I let off and got back into it and finally caught. I was eating him alive, but just didn't have enough time to recover. So that being said if I decide to run in "Mexico" again, I don't wanna have to ease into the throttle when doing a dig.

Tires and control arms should help a lot. That's about it without going too far with stuff like drag springs

Any brands you guys recommend?

Nitto NT05 is a good tire. BMR for suspension stuff and buy from Jayman at hypermotive. He is a sponsor on the site.

a good tire goes a long way. especially on a 15 x 10 wheel. LCAs, will help too.

Tire is going to go a long way.

On the auto you don't have to get as aggressive with the suspension as you would a manual trans car.

This car has nothing more than a Roush upper and mount along with a front radiator support with the sway bar removed. Rest of the suspension is stock:
