Good evening fellas. I’m going to start upgrading the suspension little by little. The car is prochargerd p1x and 305 drag radials only. The tires seems holding down the rear as of now, but eventually I will be going for street tires one day. Bmr lockout kit doesn’t work together with steeda subframe braces “ thanks to Ahl confirmation “. I can probably do bmr lockout plus another and steeda subframe braces and another. I’m mainly using the car for street and I don’t like twisting when I go wot. Shit is scary lol. I know uneven roads, turning faster, etc. can make the car unstable. I just don’t want to spend unnecessary purchases that’s all. I can pick up the parts from late model restoration because they’re 1 hour from my location. So far, the bmr stands out from reading the prior posts here. Thanks y’all.

CB005 and CB762 are a good combo?

Honestly CB005 is perfecto

I have ZERO, wheel hop on the drag radial. Thats not to say the other parts won’t help but do ya really need more for a street car u occasionally take to the track?

I guess it depends on how fast u wanna go but after seeing what Frank ran with just a BMR CB005 on a tire with his Whipple car I don’t see a reason to do much more...

Honestly, my initial plan was just that cb005. I could use the rest for 170 tstat and catted steeda h pipe. I can install the pipe, but I really don’t want to retune right now. The tune seems safe and I like it so far.

The CB010 lockout kit does work with the Steeda subframe braced from what I understand. I have the CB010 on my car and it works really well.

We run our Lethal Performance "Bread and Butter" kit on our Whipple Supercharger 18. We have been able to cut a best of 1.3 sixty foot. In addition to the standard item of the package i would definitely recommend adding Viking shocks in the mix as well. Feel free to shoot me a message with any questions!

Thanks for the reach, but I’m not planning going balls to the wall at the moment. I’ll contact you about the h pipe and the subframe braces once I took a look about this cb010.

CB005 beats the steeda subframe braces and the cb010? I would like someone’s opinion to save a few bucks.

I've done a lot of reading on this.
The Steeda "Stop the Hop" starter kit is $297 from Steeda at the moment. https://www.steeda.com/Steeda-S550-Mustang-Stop-The-Hop-Starter-Kit-555-4455 includes the subframe brace and similar bushings that you would get with the BMR CB010 (Level 1). The BMR CB005 (Level 2) is $219 and includes the cradle brace and the bushings as well. Consensus is, either one will do the job. So I'm going with the one that costs less and is easier to install. I think the CB005 is all that is required. I would love for others to chime in on this subject.

2015 Procharged....got the car in March of 2015....had significant wheel hop issues....soon went with a 305 DR. Took care of most issues...as power increased I finally ended with Steeda sub-frame connectors (made the car feel completely different, much more predictive on the backend) BMR vertical links, and BMR BK047 cradle bushing kit. Been running this set-up for 3 years now from 450rwhp to 850rwhp...no hop and straight hard launches.

I think you will be happy either way you go. I only have the BMR CB010 and it made a noticeable difference to me. I honestly don’t know if the CB005 does much more than the CB010, but I’m open if anyone has compared them. For me, I will be getting the Steeda braces in the future (when my wife lets me :) ).
