what gears you got?
Thee is NO WAY you are going to ever get that car to hook on 26" tires. get some 28's.

Use a delay switch or progresser, but yeah a 28 inch tire would definitly help. You can also run a longer line from the solenoids to the intake to lessen the shocking of the tires.

just my opinion but your wasting your time running a 26" tire with a m6 car with that kinda power, your going to be fighting traction forever or haveing very inconsistant launches and so on. if you dont wanna cut the inner fenders get a 28w on a 6.5 backspace and adjustable lower control arms.

progressive controller or 28" both will help.the 28's will give you better traction and gear you down a little,approx down to a 3.91 .
