Unfortunately your best bet with a whipple’d car (or any high HP car for that matter), is learn to modulate the throttle better. Unless you’re experiencing wheel hop, the only help you’ll get is by getting wider/stickier rear tires, and learning how to apply power in a more gradual manner.

Thanks, wasn't sure if anyone had found any unconventional ways to aid. Guys here are quite creative!

Just messing with ya. I can’t imagine running a SC or twin turbos, this car is more than enough for me.
I hope you’re hitting the track like a maniac.

It's all good! Unfortunately all this madness with covid has completely ruined my summer plans of tracking the hell outta the car. But it's going to be on next yr for sure

I’m running 325/30/19 Mickey Thompson et Ss in the rear, 305/30 summers in front. Grip is better on the street, the trade off is soft sidewalls with the drag radials. I have my eye on toyo r888r to try next.

Rear lower control arm bushings: Steeda, BMR, or CorteX priced from low to high.
