Who has the best "Launch Kit"?
I'm debating over the Pettit Launch Kit Pro which has replacement Trailing Arms, and bushings for the diff and rear suspension; or the M2 Trailing Arms with Jimlab/NTech diff and rear bushings. I'd also get either the M2 or Pettit Toe Link replacements. Anyone have advice as to which would be a better setup for a street/strip car? TIA!

if you car is a daily driver and you decide to go with pettit, dont get the pro kit. The pro kit sends to much vibrations thru the chassi. I told todd at pettit that I had major wheel hop and he just suggested that I only get the regular launch kit. So I had him instal it. It made a big difference. If you have some good tires you will love it too. Im launching at 3900 rpm, and I get very little wheel hop and just a tad wheel spin on my s03's...Good luck

I am happy with the results from installing the Unobtainium (jimlab's) bushings (differential and trailing arm). It made a dramatic difference and almost eliminated wheel hop. I installed the whole kit (front, rear and diff) and did not notice any increase in ride harshness (I have a touring). It actually seemed to smooth things out (I think my old bushings were really tired).

I have m2's trailing arms and I no longer have wheel hop. I have been looking into getting some toe links but I just bought a clutch, flywheel, and shifter so I am broke right now Can't wait to get the stuff put on though
