Default Will i have traction issues?

I'll be at mti on monday next week to get 3.42's a 3200 stall and a dyno tune done to my 00.I already have intake headers and exhaust and will break loose at 30-35 but from a dead stop i have no problem hooking.My question is will i be able to launch from light to light and actually not haze the tires?Im going to the track once to see what the difference will be from what it is now(12.94).But mostly im a weekend warrior.Thanks in advance!!!

Almost forgot ,i have the nitto 555 extremes in the stock sizes.

I can not launch hard from light to light, well done roast! My setup is a little different than yours, I just cruise around town.
