no, phil you are not wrong at all or going in the wrong direction. Boost by gear is THE BEST way to be able to control your traction problems.

im making 610 and dont have traction till 120. im going to change my tires so it should hook better

Wow 610 thats insane!! oh and to think that I was a bit worried about the diff handling 350-400 whp. I cant believe your diff is surviving. And no traction to 120 thats insane. How wide of tires are you running? how wide do you plan on taking it? I would be curious to see if you can ever gain traction in 3rd gear. Keep us posted.

S2000Junky, I said that is the best method to get traction. I didnt say its my method=) I would rather be in ontrol of my car fully and like the idea of losing traction at points. I was just stating that BBG is the best way to get traction.
