I launch my S the following way. Hold revs at right around 3k rpm. Little less than that if the surface isn't high traction or I'll get to much wheel spin. I then basically let out the clutch very fast, almost like a dump and floor the gas. This usually results in slight wheel spin and a fairly quick launch without bog. A harder launch can be had by holding the revs higher say around 4-5k rpm and feathering the clutch out more slowly but this will result in more clutch wear so I stick to the first method. Since you're dealing with slightly less hp/Tq your launch method will differ slightly but this should give you a starting point.
