For 0-60 going straight, use Auto mode. Completely turn off the VSC and Traction Control. Be careful as the wheel spin *can* cause to lose control of the car so for going straights would be an idea, not for turning.
For 60-80 I would use Auto also. Just floor it. It'll put you in 3rd gear for good pwnage. The 3rd gear will top out at around 92 mph.
For 80-130 you can use either Auto or Sport Shift. Either way would work pretty good but I would personally use SS as I have more control over the car. For SS, put it in 4th gear and upshift to 5th at about 122 mph. The 4th gear tops out at 125 mph.
Here is the data for gear ratios and shift points for the IS350:

ECT power is only useful for part or on/off throttle driving. Normal mode actually shifts at a higher rpm for flat-out acceleration.
