2nd gear powerslide ease?

I have a 2.0t genesis coupe and its REALLY easy to be in 2nd gear and be able to get the rear end out when I floor it midway in a turn while going anywhere from 15ish-30mph

Is the frs able to kick the rear end out at those speeds in 2nd gear with just throttle input?

2nd gear roll-on powerslides? I mean...a little. With the shitty tires and bad pavement. Don't buy this if you need to do true power oversteer on command.
