What's the best psi on slicks with turbo?

Hi, I have a crx b18c1 turbo 400WHP and spinning 1st and 2nd gear completely.
I am using 25x8.7x13 m&h slicks and running with 9psi tire pressure.
What's the minimum tire pressure I can run??
Any suggestions??

I would try 6~6.5psi and go from there. What rpm are you launching at? Track prep also plays a big part of the equation too. I've run my slicks down to 5~5.5psi and cut low to mid 1.6 60ft's.
