Depends in your engine/turbo combo.
My setup makes peak power at 6700, I shift at 7000
I geared my car to cross finish line as close to 6700 as possible, which is 3.73's in my case, with 28x10.5 slicks
I launch at 4800 on 2step , car has gone 9.57@146.9. 1.52 60 fts so far, I'm still working the combo, it will go bottom 9's I'm sure

3.70 rear gears

launch on the 2 step between 4800-5200 depending on conditions, shift at 6200 (need to swap turbine housings to pull it higher)

car went 10.39 @ 136 last time out on a high 1.5 i believe
