Default Help with launching

My setup is a h22 civic coupe w/ AEM CAI, DC 4-2-1, 2.25 catback, ACT clutch, holley fuel pump, tokico blues, and falken ze512 205/45/16...right now my best 60ft is 2.303...i launch at around 3k slipping out the clutch while slowly adding gas...with this technique i get a lil wheel hop, then spin, then it grabs...if i increase my launch RPM..wouldn't that increase wheel hop...cuz i read on another forum that increasing RPM would eliminate wheel hop? what should my 60's be based on my setup?

As a former owner the same type of tires i can say that they SUCK a 2.3 is probly the best you are gunna get out of them, but who knows the only thing i can say is play with tire pressures and see what you can do. Nothing will drop 60's like a proper tire.
