Screenshots of your car and the stats would be the easiest way of quickly telling the issues. But let me guess: it's a front engined, rear wheel drive car with a weight distribution of about 60F, 40R. And it probably has a lot of lift in the rear, right?

No, it's mid-engined, AWD, about 40f-60r, and it has a bit of oversteer.

I will post some pictures when I can later.

Yep, that sounds kind of odd. Excessively long gearing in first plus a late spooling turbo is the first thought that comes to mind.

If I remember correctly the turbo spools at 3500-3600 RPM and the car maxes at around 6000-something revs.
