I switched from the AVOs to Bilsteins (off of a newer 2xxx car) and noticed a big improvement in general drivability and reduced wheel hop under hard acceleration.

Greg S. did A LOT of stuff to his car to run a high 10. Hardened axles, after market third member, vastly improved headers and sidepipes (the latter which I've done...would love to do the better headers someday). Also MT 325/50-15 DRs. Impressive, but he had to open his wallet (which doesn't surprise me when you're hell bent on turning a 10). I think a high 10 is totally possible with just some squeeze in the 3-4 gear range, but getting out of the hole without serious slip or wheel hop is the challenge (and takes practice).
