The only thing that will really help is stickier tires. It's not abnormal to have a lot of wheel spin in a FWD car with ~260hp (crank). Just don't give it WOT in 1st and 2nd and your tires won't spin. I had the same thing in my GTI when I first got GIAC, but I quickly adapted and realized how much throttle I can give it.
