Has anyone installed Eibach springs and if so do you have any traction problems while launching?

Traction in general? You will probably have a little less traction overall because your weight transfer will change with the new springs. Since they are stiffer they tend to prevent transfer front to rear as well as side to side.

I experienced this with the Kenny Brown springs on my '99. It becomes a choice between a good drag launch and improved cornering. They are pretty much mutually exclusive goals :).
