Last night when I was getting ready for this street race against the stang, i found the dealership had set or not adjusted the tire pressure it was at 44psi (max) i've only had the car for three weeks but should have checked that first. It was obvious 44psi made the car launch like crap!
I set tire pressure to 24psi rears for racing and am still testing, at 24psi their was NO wheel hop but tons of tire spinning, other wise i'll go 32-36psi.

Art Spong when asked said 30 for best ride and wear for all 4. I found I like 35, and it makes a big defference in handling.

Door label says 35 / 35 cold. That's what I've been running.
The cars were shipped with high air pressure from down under for some reason - up to 60 psi on delivery in some cases.
