What are yall guys using to help with front wheel turbo hondas? traction bar, lsd, tires? cant make up my mind. Would love to have all 3, but money issues.

I did a custom turbo kit on my 420a eclipse and i had tration problems in first gear out the roof. so i know where youre coming from lol. I just recently installed some Tokico illumina adjustable struts. They seem to help considerably. the car doesnt squat hardly at all anymore and i have a lot better traction. i just put the fronts on a somewhat soft setting and the backs as stiff as they would go. lol good luck!

All of those will help but slicks will be the biggest help. Get a set of 24 inch slicks and you will probably drop a second off your et.

i got some 225 tires over stock 205, solid mounts (helped a lot), looking into a quaife soon too as i am getting a stage 4 :eek: clutch soo, so gonna do 9lbs flywheel/clutch/LSD at once. then i'm getting some radials for racing :cool:

when tracks reopen next year and i get some runs in i'm shooting for mid to low 12s :king:

track=slicks

street=mount inserts, traction bar, softer tires, suspension.
modulating right foot=cheapest solution, but not the fastest.

depends on what you're looking to do.

mostly help control wheel hop...you'll still get wheel spin.

street= soft sticky tires and 250 or so hp lol

i must say though... i cant tell the difference with traction bars.... same 60ft with traction bars and without.

if you dont want slicks, get some bfgoodridge
