Default What to launch out of the whole? NEED HELP!!

All right need some ideas whats going to make my car do some 1.9 -1.8 60fts w/ slicks. Here is my setup and then the questions i have
B16a Aem CAI, Skunk2 manifold, JDM 4-1 Header, 2.5 exhaust no cat, Nitrous Express 50shot wet. and Mugen ECU.

What RPM should i launch at w/ the slicks the size i believe is 22x8x14 i believe or something like that any specific airpressure i should start w/?

Should i come out the hole on the bottle or hit it in second to prevent wheelspin?

The car is a 91 hatch full wieght car w/ no backseat. The car has run 14.1 at 104 w/ 2.4 60ft on street tires.

what tricks or suggestions can be made to make me lower my 60fts. I know when they go down my et's should go lower. Anything so i can get ready for tonight.

Do you think its possible to hit a 13.5 w/ this setup if yes or no please give me your ideas on why.

By the way the weather is set to be cold tonight.

The way to get under 2.0's is to just launch of the revlimiter. You won't get wheelspin, that's the beauty of the slicks. Even if you do, it's much better than bogging. I hope your clutch is in really good condidion to do this, also, stock clutch won't work for it.

I'm not going to advise you to launch on the bottle, but it would give you a better 60'.

I'd set your tire pressure 10-15psi.

Always remember the faster you go, the harder it is on the car. So be carefull.

launch hard like 7500 and on the bottle as soon as you feel the car hook just mat it to the floor.

7000+ rpm launch, spray once throttle go WOT.

12 psi in the slicks (20x8x14's)

104 mph should be heaps to get mid 13's on slicks, possibly quicker!!!

Having said that slicks will take some of your mph away

Non-turbo2dr: You bag him for a typo and throw in one of your own, hehehe.
