Suspension becomes important when you get really competitive, or when trying to get radials to work. Today's drag tires are really really good. I do plenty of drag racing, and experience has taught me there is no better investment than the right tires.
The key is choose wisely. Most people make the mistake of going too big. The right tire for a Miata will look shockingly small depending on power.

my ultimate goal is a 10.99 but i dont know if 400hp and auto is enough[/QUOTE]
That is plenty of power to break in the 10's if you launch hard enough.

I think all you need is the 7.5-23-15 for your power level. I think it will be capable of 60' in the 1.6 range. Going bigger will only slow you down on the big end.
I think it is a good tire, but drag radials are less forgiving and require a lot more suspension tuning, particularly with manual trans. Once you get it right, they are actually faster than bias tires. Are you getting wheel hop? I get none using bias ply.

Bit worried about the converter at the moment went behind home put it on high boost and raked out third from 80kmh it sat at 6,800rpm and kept pulling like a train
if got a bad feeling converters slipping or maybe 3.63's are too tall for 80 in third
im new to this auto thing on a plus auto holds 25psi and grip
