There are 7 second cars running 1.2X on drag radials so it's almost a moot point to ask this question. You need to look at your setup and see what works best for it.
Try, try again will work best. I've seen guys on stock suspension with 255/50/16 BFGs turning 1.5s all day on this and other boards.

I had a 3600 Stall with 3.73's and a set of 275/50R15's on 15" Draglites. I would put it to about 1200RPM's then smash it to the floor when the light turned green. I was lifting tires and cutting mid 1.5 60ft's consistantly.
Now with the T56 in it I see it yanking up both Tires easily, I'd launch it at 4500 if I was racing it.

well drag radials are recommended to be 18-22 psi so you guys need to adjust from there just do 60ft passes and adjust psi till you get a better 60ft time....if you feel it spin go down 1 lb try again....with nittos you have to do a bad *** burn out atleast for 10 seconds i have noticed with the m/ts i have done them for 5 secs and they hook and book...
