Question

I would ask why would you want to?? the reason is anything more than that would not help with acceration times etc. IMHO

Anyway on a UK the limit is 7500

Set the rev beeper/light to around 6300rpm. That way when you change gear you'll be right in the power band. It also has the other good side effect of preventing you from hitting the red line all the time.

Thumbs up

6300 sounds good that also what mines set at... Actualy dragging it out to 7500 in fourth is slower than chaning earlier... I proved it @ the 1/4 mile!
