Am I crazy for turning this kind of rpm? And timing?

Thank you! It's amazing that that's not commonly understood. No NA setup will make the torque curve of a boosted setup.

You fail to tell the rest of the story. You end up buying those same cylinder heads, throw in a completely unstreetable cam, up the turbo to a size that would challenge a basketball hoop, then bitch about how drivetrain components won't hold 4000hp.

Well I did end up putting my shift points at 6800 on the 1-2 and 2-3 and 6500 on the 3-4. I really don’t need to turn it that high anymore. 1-2 was at 7050 and 2-3 was at 7000
