I need traction

i am about to start my turbo build and having a zzp stage 3 turbo kit for a 2.2. I have all forged internals and all supporting mods to run this turbo system. Im going to have a tune but when i take it to the drag strip i know i am going to have traction issues(my car is a 5 speed). So what can i do or buy parts to gain traction for my car. Ill be pushing close to 400hp i have been told.

Solid motor and tranny mounts are allways helpfull. i just never liked mine cause it made the whole car vibrate like crazy at idle and low rpms. Other than that the only thing left is slicks! Soft front suspension and stiff rear also helps in a front wheel drive i have heard

I saw the title and thought 'don't we all...'

Traction, sadly, is our white whale...
