this depends on a few things:
your tires, your cluth strength, your HP.
You really have to experiment on your own with your own car. High RPM launch with cluth slip can really help with off the line performance. But in all cases high RPM launching will wear out your clutch faster.
i have taken a more than a second off my 0-60 times with high RPM launching. but doing so a lot glazes the clutch.
