Default I want to hook on the street

Info on the car:

1990 CRX, b16a with Y1 LSD transmission. stock axles, Turbonetics 5857 turbo 382whp. I'm having trouble hooking up on the street. Currently have 15" tires with some Federal FZ-201s tires. Have a full race traction bar as well. I just want to hook up better on the street. I only put a couple thousand miles on the car a year so I don't mind putting on slicks or whatever else as long as I'll hook up. Also I've been told to put weight up front, what is the best option of doing so? What else can I do to get traction? Right now I'm on some 15x7 slips, willing to buy different wheels. If I gotta chop the fenders to clear the tire I don't care. Not worried about looks just perforance (on a budget though lol)

I don't have boost by gear setup. Couldn't get the solenoid working on the dyno so it has 20psi worth of spring in the wastegate

Use better tyres, feather the throttle, and f**ckin' practice. Stop worrying about the software so much. Learn the pros & cons of FWD when going after other people on the street.
C'mon now, in 2020?
