Eibach Drag Launch kit
Ford C springs
Eibach sportlines

Like others, my vote goes to the Eibach Pro-Kit.
I am leaning towards the Eibach pro kit.

Its probably safe to say most of those mentioned are progressive. I personally hate progressive springs. But like audio said thats comming from a ex-EVO owner.

BTW I rode in a cobra with a eibach pro kit...it was decent. Dont they make full adjustable coilovers for that car? So you can tune the dampening/rebound for street and strip?

as far as I know, steeda makes a kit/bunch of coil over stuff for mustangs. Everyone would recommend the Tokiko adjustable gas struts and shocks right? lifetime warranty can't be bad.

No, there is absolutely no aftermarket suspension parts for Mustangs, mostly the SN95 chassis...sorry.

If you have a decent strut/shock combo under them, you'll be pleased.

I am going with Strange adjustable struts and shocks. Quite a few buddies in MD are using them on their street strip cars and like them.

Dont get sportlines if you have longtubes because they lower the car 2 inches. And depending on what you want to do, straight line or twisties will decide what you get.
