Will removing front &rear sway bars and quad shocks improve times?

[aj1025]

I'm just curious if by removing the rear and front sway bars and removing the rear quad shocks if this will improve my times at the track. I saw a post on the Corral Forums about a guy with an auto who had this in his setup, along with other mods and he was running in the high 12's. I know alot of people will say that my car will handle like crap if i remove all of this, but the guy i'm talking about said his car is a daily driver. Does anyone out there run with this set up, and if you do, has it hurt your times and drivability around town, or just the opposite. Thanks for any info.

I have steeda upper and lowers control arms. I removed the quad shocks but left the rear sway bar on. I removed the front sway bar completely. I drive it all the time around turns no problem. You will not notice much of a difference in daily driving. If racing strait is your thing take it off this helps the weight transfer to the rear wheels. If you prefer the road coarse leave the swaybars on they help in high speed cornering.

remove the front bar but leave the rear bar and quadshocks. the quad shocks are there to dampen axle windup/wheelhop and without them your launch will be garbage. if you have aftermarket control arms then by all means ditch the quads, as the aftermarket control arms locate and plant the rear very well. the rear sway bar will also help to plant the rear on a hard launch...ditch the front bar to allow more suspension articulation and better weight transfer
