If the spring rate remains the same (which I suspect it may) I'll be convinced
As you tighten down the collars, you'll also be changing the ride height. As mentioned earlier, adjusting the collar is solely to change ride height, and not spring rate.

There are several other things you can do to increase forward traction. I don't know your setup, but you can add toe, anti-squat, weight, select the right tire, soften the suspension, shorten the wheelbase, etc. etc.
