You're not going to want to DD a drag setup for a FWD car. You don't want to live with the rear spring rate that it takes to properly control rearward weight transfer to get a really good launch. So you'll have to compromise your lauch if you want to DD it. It's like every other racecar; what's good for the street isn't good on the track, and vice versa.

You can make any car fast enough with money. Your best bet is to get a stiff suspension that has a high spring rate for the rear coilovers. Certain brands sell "drag" coilovers.
