I do get to the mark every now and again... But I usually watch it and let it shift out of first at about 5700 if I'm in a pissy mood... My car with no performance shift will hit redline if I hold it to the floor.. If I'm doin some stompin... I usually let shift at 40-43 mph... Anymore I try to keep it under 5000 Rpms though...
The 91 is a diffrent story... It gets to its redline too easy... Its scarry... I hit about 6300-6500 with it once... Though I was going to kill it.. I saw the needle burried in the red and almost died... I have seince adjusted the TV cable back up a bit to have the trans shift a little early.. It also takes more to achive first gear.. I think I hit too hard though and it readjusted to it original posistion... I don't floor this car anymore, valve train won't take the abuse....

When I got my car it shifted at 4800 rpms... When I removed Silencer Module and added K&N... It raised to 5000 rpms... 5000 rpms is the highes it will let me go.... Though when I race i put it in Drive.. (NOT OVER DRIVE) and when I get to 3rd Gear I was apporaching 5300 rpm'* and I didnt even notice.. I was about 93mph.
