    Default Best sixty foot with stock suspension

    What is your best sixty foot with stock suspension style and no anti roll bar. I really want to put tailpipes back on the car this summer and the 12 passes I do all year doesn't justify turn downs and disconnecting the roll bar to drive around. I'm starting to think driving around with no sway bars isn't that smart either.

    Please list suspension components and best sixty.
    TIA

    FWIW, you can get tailpipes to work with an anti-roll bar. You just need to have some made/ modified.

    I have the UPR bar and I don't think it gives as much room as others. I had a y-pipe custom made for the turbo and the guy didn't even want to try it.

    Todd Reiter can do it... and he is a UPR dealer so that's what he's used to dealing with. He is also a sponsor on here - Reiter's Metalcraft

    Todd actually installed the UPR bar and my cage. When I asked him to do a OJ special on the tailpipes he gave me a look like it was't possible. Maybe I'll ask him again.

    That's just crazy right there. The sway on that car must have been uncontrollable.
