Default traction frustrations

i probably deserved this when i decided to build my new setup but im having traction issues. 1st and 2nd gear going into boost i would break loose and shifting into third it slightly breaks.

what kind of street tires are you guys running that gets you the best traction?

im running a stock B20/vtec @ 10-11 psi

Drag radials for the street and/or track.

Race slicks for the Track and maybe some traction bars.

Defintely drag radials on the street... Also an LSD, traction bars, good motor mounts, struts, springs, staged boost controller (so you can run less boost in 1st and 2nd gear), and maybe some practice? You will not get traction on the street running full boost in 1st and 2nd gear no matter what you do (assuming your making close to 300whp).
