i would've raced from a stop, but i cant get traction AT ALL in 1st, 2nd, and sometimes in 3rd. can't wait to get tuned

1) GTO guy can't drive, and it's probably a stickshift car because those are down on power compared to the automatics. If you have the power to weight to pull an F-body, or F-body clone that runs exactly like an F-body, he should pull you a car and a half from a roll and then you would walk by him... you should really start pulling him in the upper gears. I know, because I did in my CRX with and LS and the exact same turbo you are running at 7 and 9 psi. My CRX also weighs a lot less.
2) You aren't making any power to speak of with that combo at those pressures... it might be worth speaking of if your car wasn't a heavy **** family sedan. Lose a thousand pounds off your curb weight, eh?
3) You aren't making any power to speak of, your car is a lot heavier than my CRX so you have a lot more stability, and you have no traction through 3rd gear. Verdict: You have overlowered your car like a riceboy, and will never get any traction.
You have heart, son... put it to work on your car, it needs it.
