Cool

New engine mounts will transfer more power to the ground when you step on the gas & can reduce wheel-hop. But that's not normally an issue until you get into monstor power. & then... You can jst build youself a J-bar / Traction bar (Same thing 2 names) and have a 4 link FWD suspension.
New sway-bar links will help, along with sway-bar bushings if you don't have them.


The biggest thing would be a rear sway bar. Won't change anyhting in a line until you're going pretty fast, but they make turn in & the apex of the turn a zillion times better.
