Mines a 88 turbo 5spd. I have low profile tires.
Launch at 3000~3800Rpm This is when i really want to go.
1st to second i shift around 3,800 not point of going higher in 1st u'll just spin the tires when u shift to second. you really need to keep the rpms up for faster shifts and better acceleration
2nd to third i shift at 5,200 any higher is just not worth it.
3rd to fourth around 5,000 by the time i hit fifth i'm already going 160-180km/h
4th to fifth around 4,800 got to keep the turbo spooling max boost.
That's what i shift at when I'm going hard and straight. The launch u need tweek i dk your car.
Check what RPM u spin at.

Remember Turbo lag is the moment the car beside u thinks there going to win lol.
