Default Traction with B16a Turbo??

I was scrimping threw the achieves, and couldn’t find what I was looking for. I want to know how bad of a traction issue I’ll have with this setup. 95 vx hatch, B16 SiR2, Drag 3 Turbo Kit @ (7si), Y21 Lsd Trans, with 15x6.5 195/50/15 yoko avs 100 tires. For suspension, all I have are ground control springs 1.75in drop. Any info, or how to improve my setup would be greatly appreciated.

well when i had my civic turbocharged i had crazy traction problems, quik_sol is right, you can avoid traction problems with FWD cars...drag radials do help, and i found that raising the back of the car just a little higher than the front helped also...but then this would mean coilovers.
