actually, warming up your tires even on stock radials will help your time significantly.
try revving up to 4.5k and dropping the clutch. only burn out for 3-4 seconds. long burn outs can lead to a time increase.

On street tires you want them a little warm not hot , do a quick DRY burn out ...
make sure you take out the brake fuse first , get the rpms at 3-4 K and drop the clutch , that should get you STREET tires enough heat..

you have a manual. turn off vdc.. rev the engine until 4500rpms. drop the clutch while getting on the gas. all u will hear is tire squeel, ur car will start to pull sideways (atleast mine does) and u will need to shift

dump clutch (w/vdc off) and let it rip (Hold brake with left foot after clutch dump. if you're using slicks or drag radials. Hold it down hard. This is called a powerbrake). No, you do not need to shift.
Hopefully you have ***** and bought a 6spd, so you won't have to worry about the gay "remove fuse" trick

don't flame on him because no one ever taught him how to burn out... you learn stuff by being taught... some try themselves, but it is easier to ask so you don't brake sumthin or F*ck sumthing up... someone helped you out or told you how... so CHILL!
