Best Street Launch Technique?

I have no interest in trying the brutal "launch control" launches, but would be interested if anyone has found a compromise street launch technique.

I find that if I stomp on the gas at a light, the car hesitates before it hooks up the clutch, then the turbo needs time to spool up, so the whole process before reaching 3000 rpm and "really getting moving" is close to a second.

I have tried all the switch settings, but they all seem to give the same outcome. I also tried (hesitantly) doing a bit of "give it some gas while holding the brake" like an automatic, but that seems to make it bog down even more.

Your tricks/experiences would be welcome.

By the way, notwithstanding the sluggish launch off the line, according to my G-tech it can still do 0-60 mph in a bout 4.1 - 4.2 seconds using this street launch technique.
Thanks
