Default My shiftlight setting?

I have a shiftlight and have had it for awhile. At first and until now I have had it set at 5,500 rpms. I guess i'm wanting to know what most people set them at. Mods are in my sig if you need to know. Thanks for any info.

5800 to 6000 will work the best with the stock camshaft. You have to figure in how long it will take YOU to shift once the light comes on.
