just about 5300-5400 if your on a 26 inch tire

you won't have to shift into 5th, you will be EXACTLY where you wanna be

i've never used a good tach and don't bother w/ the stock since they are way off at hi r's , but my shiftlite w/ a 5200 chip would lite up about 2 seconds b4 going through the traps so thats where i guessed the r's from

bumping DOWN 1 set is not worth it unless absolutely necessary , but bumping up like your talking about is imo.

It all depends on how much horsepower you have. With 300hp and 4.10's you might trap at 6000 rpms, and with 400hp would be close to 6500rpms.

I go thru the traps at 6500rpms with 4.30's and a 28" tire. On the nitrous it traps at 7400rpms.

6000+ RPM's is no good for me, my motor aint built to spin that high and my rev limiter kicks in at 6000, maybe I will just put some nitrous on my car, i just figured i would go with 4:10's because i can pick some up for 50$ and the car is a weekend only car not a DD

I normally leave the line at 4500-5500, shift at 5800, and go through the end of the 1/4 at 6100. I have 26" tall tires.
