Get either Torch or Omega quickly (doesn't matter that much for first layer of ICE, depending on ICE str you see, decide - Omega attacks all servers, Torch only one, but cheaper). Use either Modded or SMC/Clone Chip during Stimhack run to get those two expensive ones out.
You want to "compress" servers to keep them with 2 ice at most - this is done by parasiting and running with datasucker tokens. For special cases, reuse Tinkering.
Escher for a occasional surprise, if ICE you want to switch R&D/HQ pressure in late game, Inti as a counter for Wraparound which is heavy in local meta.
Your ideal starting hand should have Pro Contacts and SMC. Then, depending on the draw, either run with Stimhack and get Omega/Torch or amass some money and use Modded, if you happen to have it with breaker on hand.

As an afterthought, Torch once again turned out to be too unstable and too costly to get it out consistently and quickly. I would probably switch it now to plain Gordian or maybe even Yog. This frees the "huge chunk of monkey now" need from Stimhack and the influence could be spend on something else. The deck still needs more stable influx of money in early game - it could be Grifter, but I'm not sure or just Armitage (instead of Kati).
(Modded) Omega feels solid as an early pressure. Sharpshooter helps with facechecking ice you want to Parasite later and disourages Archer. It can be reused using Clonechips if really necessary.
Toolbox is still too huge tempo blow (even Modded), plain MU to be pulled when necessary is probably better.
