I've had success anywhere from 5,000 to 6,500 rpms. I tend to like 5,500 rpms the best because then it seems to be the perfect launch for my set up, it doesn't squeel the tires, and it doesn't bog at all. She just gits up and go and the rpms just climb from 5,500 and never go down after releasing the clutch.

Basically what I do is rev her to 5,000 and when I know the lights about to go, I let the clutch out just enough for the car to start to roll a little, then i give it more gas so that she revs to 5,500 and starts building boost, then the light turns and I let the clutch out slow enough without burning it and punch the gas and next thing I know I'm going 30 mph shifting into 2nd.
