Default stock rev limiter

What did Ford set the rev limiter at on the 05-09 cars? Did they change it on the 2010?

Yes I have google'd and done searches and been unable to find much on it except people guessing.

I believe the factory setting for the 05-09 GT's is 6250 RPM. Brenspeed reset mine to 6800 which I was a little uneasy with so I reset it to 6500 RPM (and I still bounce off it when I'm not paying attention). Unless Ford got some ********* for the '10 and raised it in support of their retune for those extra 15 crank HP, it's probably still 6250 RPM on the '10. Anyone know for sure?

The reason I ask about the 2010 is that the REDLINE has been increased over the 05-09.
