Default Drag tips? (13.952@100.68)

Going to the strip this weekend, any tips from those that have run one of these before? I have drag raced for quite a few years now pretty consistently, but with rwd applications.

Front tire pressure, rear tire pressure, shift points? I have K&N CAI, 3800MS mount, and Magnaflow catback. Will I run a high 13?

I'm kinda new to these cars, but my car seems to do better with 26-27 in the front and 40-42 in the rear tires.

I dont know where your located but this time of year I vote 14.1-14.5.
October, if your good, 13.7-13.9 and if your good and run on a perfect day w perfect track prep 13.6. Good luck

Default times...

First three runs were all 14.0x at 100.xx. I then pulled off the drivers headlight to get a little more air and it ran three 13.9x's in a row. Best run was a 13.952 at 100.68 mph with a 2.078 60 foot. Hardest part was getting off the line. Have to ease into it as others stated. Not bad for a 84 degree day.
