Sorry, the greddy controller is reading in psi so its 18.2psi. That is before 4k. Even with a locker and 225 tires I can't keep traction.

Camera can't focus on the contoller for some reason.

yeah that is cool man! maybe u need to get some stickyer tires now. I am gonna run the MT street drag radials which are an awesome tire. maybe u should look into those. Im sure they are much cheaper in the US.
Wait till your car starts wheelspinning at over 60mph, then u will know what traction problems are!!!

I think I am going to look into alcolol injection now so I can run more boost.

Just a heavily ported out 15g courtesy of thelostartof and Eric S. Then I over ported my manifold and running a 3" from the downpipe back with a dynomax ultraflow. I have other "supporting" mods but nothing major. The walbro made a difference.

I dont have problems get my car to spinn in 4th with 255 GoodYear tyres...On one wheel though:-P and it has to be a turn. But in straight line it spins in 2 and 3 on dry tarmac.
