After all the discussion, it depends on your powerband... just keep in mind that the stock tach lags slightly. In 1st gear at WOT, if it shows 6k, you may really be closer to 6200. Shift light FTW.

you need to have your car dyno'd if you haven't yet. that graph will tell you where your peak horsepower is at. when you shifting gears try to hit the peak hp mark. remember to account for your reaction time, say your peak is at 6000rpm you would probably start to shift at about 5800rpm so once you are releasing the clutch peddal you'll hopefully hit 6000rpm. or just dont lift off the gas pedal and use clutch just before rev limiter take action..
