The Nitto's should hook rather well for you. Now you wont be able to launch the hell out of the car like it was on slicks, but it should be better than most street tires. Also, any RWD car will have better hookup because of weight transfer. When you launch a car, the weight shifts back to the rear, where it helps to plant the rear wheels down. In a FWD, the same weight transfer happens, but now it lifts the entire front end up, taking the wheels and tires with it, along with your traction. IMO, good suspension setup will be most benificial with ANY tire. A higher stance in the rear, lower stance in the front, good adjsutable struts in the rear, set as stiff as then can go, along with stiff springs, and soft adjustment in the front for shock setting. A good limited slip diff will help greatly too, this way, you have BOTH tires gripping, instead of fighting eachother for traction.. Also, run with as little gas as you can, and try to keep as much weight out of the back end as possible. Mate these mods with some good tires, and you turbo guys should have no problem getting at least a 2.0 60 ft time. Of course, you as the driver have to know how to launch the car good as well. It is very, very difficult to do with a turbo FWD car. Just takes lots of practice and getting to know your car. Pulling sub 2.0 60 fts is entirely possible deeming your car is set up right, the right tires, and the right skills to do so. Its been proven that for every tenth you take off your 60 ft time, you take off 2 tenths in your end 1/4 time.
