high hp fwd's are only a pain to drive because people never spend enough time on working out the handling and just keep upping the power untill it gets out of hand. If you keep working on handling at the same time as upping your power and get a nice balanced settup you wont have a problem. The way i see it is to keep a FWD drivable you need to maintain a good balance of power and handling cause you cant just blindly power slide it through a corner like you can with a RWD car.

 

A FWD will always reach its limit before an AWD or RWD car. Even stock the MS3 has to have an ECU program to reduce the torque steer in the first two gears.
