Traction Problems
I'm thinking of going turbo in a Integra LS and I just want to know if I will have traction problems with just the turbo on stock internals and if so what can I do to solve that problem. I know getting tires will help, but I just need some more information from those who know from experience.

Re: Traction Problems
One sure fire way to keep from having traction problems is to keep your foot out of the gas. Other than that... you are gonna need some better tires, maybe some traction bars will help too.

What should I run on 1/4 mile with turbo (8lbs of boost) and everything else stock?

Re: Traction Problems
probably mid 14's, MAYBE low 14's.. depends on how good a driver you are and how good your tires are.. There are lots of other variables. But thats would be my guess.

How much would it take to get into mid 13s using the cheapest and safest route?

Re: Traction Problems
better motor, and some fuel upgrades.
I have the falken azenas (the older ones) on my mitsu and i am pushing about 16lbs of boostand no wheel spin. But you don't stomp on it with a turbo anyway. You really have to learn to drive a turbo it's way diff from a N/A car.
