Taking some pressure of the tires will help, but it will become very prone to torque steering. It's not a bad idea also to map less boost for 1st and 2nd gears. But in the end it all comes to tires.

You will virtually completely irradicate torque steer with a Quaife ATB. It makes an amazing difference.
