So u got the power, but u got the wheelspin...
I have a civic ek4 (civic hb) with a b18c swap, and all the JDM sir breaking and runing gear. The box is a b16a box, no LSD, running Falken Azenis Semi slick, street legal tyres, hks coilovers hypermax 2, hardened up rear with struts and sways.
I want to drop the height at the front end abit more and stiffen the rear even more, but its too compromising on the street. More to the point Im wheel spinning in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears at 22psi. (fully built b18c)
What do i do??? I simply need traction, even now, with all suspension and chassis work that ive done, im wheel hopping and spinning my tyres out of control after 6k rpms!
Has anyone used stage boost?

agreed. i think most people with high hp use some type of staged boost controller. a common one is the apex AVCR, but i have never used this so i can't coment other that i have heard both horror stories (VTC_CIVIC) and success stories as well. for me, i'm looking at just running a turboXS dual stage MBC for when i make the mad p0\/\/A
i think brian fisher (who runs 9s and also hold the street tire record of 11.02) with a dual stage MBC but dont quote me one that.

if you cant afford a gear based boost controller , simply learn how to feather the gas pedal for the time being ...
