Mine torque steers like crazy. I might try an alignment but I think it's from my UR pullies. They give a ton of low-end torque and I end up losing so much traction on start-up because I don't have LSD.

Seriously, it's not like the thing is a Monte Carlo SS FWD torque monster. It happens to every front wheel drive open diff car like stated above. The super awesome torque given by some pulleys doesn't really make much difference.
