Hello,

There is a few things to start with and then go from there. If you can answer a few questions I will be glad to help lead you in the right direction.

Does the car have any suspension mods now? If so what? What tires and size are you running? Is the car lowered? Auto or manual?

Let me know and I am glad to help. Thanks!
Ryan

First put Mickey DR's on it and see where you stand.

I make over 400rwhp with lowering springs/Konis and can dead hook at the track when I heat my tires real well. No traction mods at all. Now on the street is a different story and will break loose at any speed in 1st gear
