FWD suspension mods
Ok, so I have 98 GS-T maxing out the 14B power-wise, and can't get a very good time but the trap is pretty good for pump gas. I'm gonna be putting a holset turbo in it soon and the dyno should be showing me numbers in the 500 range on race gas, it'd suck to make that kind of power and run 13's. I need some tips on what to do to get this damn thing off the line. I ran a 14.1 at 106mph with nothing better than a 2.3 60 ft time before the motor blew. I'm thinking about getting some super hard rear shocks and some slicks in the front. Anyone else find anything good? Also, I've only been at the track 3 times, so 60 foot should improve as I learn to launch better.

A good set of 1 piece coilovers or some sleeve type coilovers with KYB AGX's.
Mid damper setting up front and stiffest setting for the rear dampers on the rear
Motor mount inserts (Polyurethane fill mod from Home Depot/Lowes / Energy suspension / Prothane) to prevent "wheel hop"
Some good slicks or some soft rubber z rated tires with low tire pressure if you are on a budget.
2 step/stutterbox
