2013 1le going to test and tune tomorrow

I got a 2013 1le that is bone stock except for a cai intake and an apex scoop. I am going to a test and tune tomorrow and was curious if anyone had any suggestions for tire pressures on my Michelin pss rear tires. Also, if anyone has any pointers, it would be greatly appreciated as if i encounter any fords, i would like for them to eat my dust.

I went out a couple of weeks ago for the first time. I have the same tires,I was running them with 34 P.S.I I was wheel hopping a little ,and I have suspension mods. I was running consistent 13.00 Dropped to 28 P.S I and did a nice burnout and was able to get a 12.9. I am definitely going to get some drag tires,I can't be burning up my DD tires that I drive home with.

Hahah i hear yeah in the dd tires. Did you skip the water box and just do a dry burnout to clean the tires off? My PSS for daily driving is at 41 so i was planning on dropping them to 30. I wish i was going to an 1/4 mike track but i have a 1/8 track only 15 minutes away.

I drove around and backed into the water box, put it in second brought it to 4500 and dumped the clutch,heated them up nicely. That was my best launch of the day!
