With a ReVtech motor and Trinity/Epic pinions, I didn't need to extend the flat spot on the shaft. They are shorter than the other brands of pinions I have. Keep that in mind 
plus the gold looks badass.
On low traction, I usually find softer springs with low roll centers to make the best grip, along with 2 gear diffs..... think 0B or 3A all around, with silver/green. Some guys are running blue/green here to keep the car a bit flatter, with about 2mm uptravel/droop all around. Gold/silver is a pretty stiff combination......
My friend has a "point and shoot" driving style, and he is typically as fast as me. He always makes a ton of grip on low bite (where as I'm usually faster on high bite). This is because all of his high-speed driving is in a straight line. I think he's running 1B/0B front, 1B/1B rear with 14.5/13.5 springs...... he likes a spool up front. Might be worth a shot......

Check out some of the setup sheets on Associated's site. No guarantee that any one driver's setup will work for you but you may see some trends based on the types of tracks they are driving on. Secondly, have you checked what the locals are doing? It may simply be the wrong tire or wrong tire prep for that track. The reason I say this is I've tried a number of setups on my TC6 and none of them had problems with a push.
Good luck.
ive basically printed every set up sheet i can find to study sey ups . Yesterday when practicing i wasnt running any tire treatment i started with sorex 28 and were worse then my hpi 30 but still had pushbutb was better when i switched. wasnt sure if i adjusted roll centers if would help also checked my camber last night and was noy equal side to side.

If you can't get them locally, you can order straight from Trinity's site. I haven't checked other sites yet. OR talk to EAMotorsports...... he typically has Trinity stuff on him, or can get it in for you.
Even if you don't use or aren't allowed a tire prep, it would help a lot to at least clean the tires every run.

regarding your setup, if the track has a long straight or is fast, run 1 degree of toe out on front,
