two step allow you to full throttle launches without revving it to the max.

usually you set it around 6k (people with slicks), then full throttle and the rev stays at 6k and doesn't go higher. full throttle allows you to build up exhaust gases to pre-spool the turbo.

since you don't have a two-step, launch around 3.0k-3.5k
pulse the throttle, in and out so u build exhaust gas to spool the turbo. when you about to launch jam the gas all the way.

or you can

hold it around 3k, when the tree lights up jam the gas all tha way then pop the clutch.
