Like they all do, my Viggen used to practically dance from lane to lane if I did a slingshot launch. And on WOT runs up a freeway ramp it would break loose at between 45-50mph when the HP & torque curves converged to gang up on the tires. All I've done is replaced the original tires with new Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's in the stock size. I was amazed. Yup, there's still a bit of it there, but it's entirely manageable. If it'd been like this when I bought it I would have said the car has no torque steer issues. Only other thing I've done is the SAS rear sway bar. Who knows, maybe that helps this problem a bit, but I wouldn't think so.
