I havnt run the nittos personally but anyone I know who has uses around 15-18psi w/ a real good burn out. Youll have to be a little more specific w/ your problem (spinning bogging etc). Hope you get it to hook. Its an awsome feeling.
Seems like my best 60 of a 2.1 was with just a hint of wheel spin. Usually when my times are worse I either light the back tires up too much or bog horribly. With the stock turbo boost FULL boost comes on around 2900 rpm which probably isnt helping my launch either.

I do have front strut brace larger aftermarket front and rear swaybars eibach springs and aftermarket struts. Im sure all of this stiffening/strengthing isnt helping either. If I decide to sacrifice handling for improve straight line performance I could always go back to factory somewhat mushy springs/strut combo.

I may just wait until I switch to my larger turbo and see how the car acts then with boost coming on at a higher rpm.

What I think I really need is a nice burn-out. Just didnt want to screw up the rear brakes.
Thinking about trying to order a linelock kit from summit and make it work
