I've lit the tires up in 3rd. Can't think of what would cause you to not be able to spin 2nd in those trash eagles other than an issue that needs to be addressed

I've got the same tires and the exact same problems!.

I was hoping with the warmer weather coming that they might start gripping better but so far anything 70 degrees or under it's dicey.

Sounds like torque management to me you will never know without logs tho. These cars act so differently at the track vs the street once you deviate from a stock tune its ridiculous. Does the car let you do the burnout without any issues?

I am having an issue after my Vortech install. I believe my throttle is closing in one spot because I here the bypass loose boost and and then car just stops. It only does it 3 times out of ten at medium throttle in 2nd gear and sometimes 3rd at 3-3500rpm. If you do a pull from 1st through4th no issues at all. I have checked everything that is mechanical and can’t find it so I am waiting for my tuner to take it back and see if it’s in settings somewhere. I have an 18 and he said tuning looks different on the 18s than the 16 or 17. I seem to be the ginnea pig for the 18 and I am not liking it one bit. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I suggest you find a legit tuner that knows these cars

I found another guy with alot of experience with 6th gens and he corrected everything
