918's in theory should handle these lifts, but why risk it? PP "Gold" would be my choice.
To decide the "right" shift points, you would habe to dyno tune and take a look at your graph to make a decision. Anything else is guesswork or a lot of trial and reprogram.
basically you want to hold the maximum power range between shifts, and your graph should put you right on track.
Your actual 6500rpm points will work, but will not be optimized.
