Problems building boost on the line

[Mac]

Guys,

I've always had problems building more than 2-3 pounds of boost on the line with my Nittos and didn't think much of it until I installed some ET Streets and the same thing happened. Once I get over 3 pounds the slicks started spinning. This really suprised me.

I have a linelock, S-10 wheel cylinders, pinion snubber, and airbags. I run around 16-17 in the slicks and do a decent burnout. My car sits kinda high in the back making me think the previous owner installed the wrong springs. Would this cause my problem.

I plan to install some HR upper and lower control arms, ATR sway bar, new OEM (5379)springs, and airbag spacers.

Thanks,

Chuck M.

Let a little bit of air outta the slicks. And make sure your brake system is all up to par, check the power bastard(i mean master), shoes, drums front pads and rotors. maybe the drums need to be turned and you need new shoes. are you using a line lock, becuase if you are foot braking in your burnout, you can burn up the brake shoes. Your brakes may need to be bled.
