get upper and lower control arms for wheel hop issues. adjustable and with the relocation brackets since you dont have a budget.

I have BMR lowers and the Steeda upper. The lowers are a little noisy. Steeda says they have special bushings that reduce noise on their lowers. I have not compared the two on my car, but it would be worth an extra $100 if they actually were quieter, IMO. I found the lowers helped some, the upper helped a lot, but I have yet to go to the track with both of them installed. I removed the lowers because the noises were driving me nuts. I am not blaming the lowers. They probably are just amplifying noise that is already there.

I was a little disappointed that I had to spend money on a brand-new car to get it to where it should have been stock, but you will find MANY people have this problem when you do a search on all the forums. You'll also find that different things worked for different people. Just go forward assuming you will have to buy lowers and the upper and maybe relocation brackets!
