need help with suspension stuff again

ok hears the dillio, my car has absolutly no traction after turbo install, the car ust spins and spins on first gear and when i slam it into second it doesnt start grip untill 7700 RPM (no joke), i asked about this before and someone said get some coilovers and struts and stuff but dont coilovers just lower the car? i dont want a lower car i was a stiffer suspension, does anyone have anyidea of some brands or websites i can get these from?

seriosly try shifting easier and not mashing the gas off the line....does it spin bad if you walk it out and then get on it?..then you just need better tires

from what I thought, and I say this just for someone to contradict me so that I can learn, it was mainly wheelhop that was caused by a bad suspension setup. replacing crossmembers, control arms, bushings, everything.. and they cut down on actual wheel hop. as far as no traction, maybe stiffer springs in the back to keep your nose from coming up? drag springs perhaps? other than that, it would seem to be tires...
