Arrow ...

dont go wasting 200$$ on uppers..adjustable uppers are for cars that are serious about racing <10 sec..
lower the tire pressure to 10 or 12 psi you really cant expect a hard launch out of a 17" tire... so what i used to do is and got a 1.8 is hold the rpm at 4500 then dump the clutch and the motor will bog..period.after you get the car rolling then drop the pedal to the floor..then when you hit second,hit the juice..btw 100 shot is good for 11.7 or so.dont forget to move your timing 10* base w/o the plug in. i go to the track (sar) weekly on weds night...
if that dont work, i know it will get some m/t et radials. then the problem will go away..that is a steep 1st so if you spray out of the hole you better have your shit together for 2nd cause itll come damn fast.but if your definitely gonna spend money then buy a set of 28 by 9 et streets(radial or bias ply)
and enjoy your 1.7 60'ers. the only reason i suggest 28 is rpm on the big end you cant turn above 6250 and stock lower ends dont like 6k without a set of arp rod bolts..the subaru kid doesnt really have to worry bout traction to much.. those little bastards hook hard.
