#1) It's a great idea to call Sam Strano
#2) My $ .02 I'd say Sway bars & an adjustable panhard bar would help.
I did notice that after I lowered my car and put the Koni shocks on that when the a$$ end slides out it's far more predictable than before. Night and day difference. I'm out of money for mods for this year, but I definitely plan on getting sway bars (most likely from Sam). The rear is so predictable that sometimes believe it or not...I slide the a$$ end out on purpose

What kind of bushings do you have on them? Are they Poly/Poly?

"*** slide" when? Entering, middle or corner exit?
Spring/Shock combination?
Tires?
Road surface?

More info needed ....

I would think the biggest problem is lack of traction. You have enough power to spin your wheels to easily. Wider, and stickier tires, then stiffer shocks and springs, next stiffer bushings and swaybar, finally adj pan hard, lcas. Just my 2 cents. Im not an expert but I have driven my car enough to have experiences with all the above.
