Default drag racing advice

What does everyone reccommend in regards to tire pressure and coilover adjustment? Does raising the rear make any difference? yoko AVS' street tires will be used. Also, any suggestions on vtec cont. settings (b16a w/ I/H/E) with normal bolt ons? Tanks

I usually drop the tire pressure to about 28psi front for more traction, and leave the rear at 35psi so it gets less traction. I don't *think* raising the rear would help much aside from making you look funny... but it's probably a good idea to (if you have adjustable shocks) raise it to the stiffest setting so the car's not squatting back onto the rear as much and raising the front tires...
