If its a case of the grip being very high then the front pins may well be causing the main problem.

options are as follows..

Definately change the rear piston, then the base set up is correct, the main changes you should need to change to improove things for your style are springs, oil, shock position wheel base and anti squat.

However if the springs and general locations are right I wouldnt worry about the rest if your not racing competitvely yet.

As Darren said, ask Kev for help, if he is your local fast guy then thats the best way. 'Most' top end drivers have experience with the B4 in one way or another and can provide general help, however ask drivers who run the b4 for more specific advice.

Tyres are a huge part of set up (about 90%), if they are not right then the car will be wrong.
If your running pins all round, try spikes on the front, or even try stagger ribs as they provide grip without the 'snap' effect, meaning the car will be safe and easier to chuck around.

Asking for help trackside is important, local fast guys know what works well, and will be more than approachable.
