I like +15 shift pressure and -15 shift time with the 3.15. Start there, the adjust to your liking.

Now that I run 3.73's, I like +5 shift pressure and -5 shift time.

What gears do you have?

I had a predator on my 00 A4 last year and I raised the shift points to 6300 on the first two shifts with max pressure and minmum delay and it worked great. I was able to get into the 12s consistantly at the track with only a LS6 manifold, a Blackwing and a Corsa Pace

If you raised your shift points to 6300 wouldn't the car bounce off the rev limiter before shifting? If not what do you have your rev limit set to?

You don't need the predator to chrip the tires. Just get some traction thru 1st and floor it, At least thats what I do.
