They should go a tad into the red... and cut out at like 6200..

I've also heard 5800 is the cut out.. I've seen a box stock 02 GT rev to like 6200 and bounce

its about that, when i race i shift at 6grand, thats the optimal shift point for a gt everyone thinks its too high but its actually perfect because when you shift you stay higher in the powerband, the only thing is you have to be on the money with your shifting so if your not quick with it its probablly not for you.
