        Tunnel mounts are good for drag racing but if you get into autocross, roadracing , or other situations that require hard/agressive braking they tend to wheel hop.
        I use BMR stuff but as of lately I really like the UMI pieces

          I agree.. I only want my car to go fast in a straight line.. Don't care about the other stuff.. You can definately feel it when you turn corners and such, likes to hop a bit now and then..

            Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'm definitly looking for more " overall " driving instead of just straightline performance....I know soon that I'm gonna have to be replacing parts( shocks, springs, etc. ) and I didn't want to necessarily just put oem stuff back on the car...not that it handles bad stock, but I figure if I gotta replace it anyways, 'mise well make it better

              qa1 makes nice spring shock combo's that are adjustable for any condition. Kinda pricey but gets the job done
