That depends on your age (I.e. reflexes!) A "good" Z brother friend said I should set mine at 5500... (Ah, the FBI Brotherhood can be brutal!)

I have a Fidanza and set mine at 6900, & in first gear the 7200 rev limiter comes mighty quick! Higher gears and I have a few milliseconds to react- not so quick. In third there are a few more milliseconds to react.

It is a learned thing. It takes some getting used to, whereever you set it. And, what mods you have (mine being a "500" package adds 2-3 hundred to what works with stock. The track is the ultimate test, of course!

And, just in case that schmartazz FBI friend is reading this, I'll have him know I bought mine used and I found it set at 6700...So there!
