Every car is a little different. You'll have to do the old trial and error thing. You want weight transfer, but no squat (as told to me "only girls squat" ). To get the most out of the weight transfer you can remove the front sway bar (if you haven't already). Don't see any other mod's (suspension or otherwise).
Start 3 front; 5-6 back. Do only one change at a time (fronts or backs - but not both). Have someone watch for tire spin. Try different tire pressure also.
Have fun and good luck

Sounds like you have about everything -- except the stock swaybar. You may want to upgrade that, but try the different shock settings.
What RPM are you launching at. With your clutch and rear-end you should be launching at least 5000.
Good luck

pinion angle is set to the stock setup per the umi instruction sheet
im running 275/50x 15 bfg gforce dr's (as soon as they wear out i wanna go with a 275/60)
i start at 17psi and lower it depending on if it spins
yes i launch around 5k rpm
