Default shift points

On my ws6 I have your basic bolt ons 3" catback, pulleys,blah blah. So just wondering what i should reprogram my shift points up to, as well as the rev limiter. I have a jet reprogrammer. Just lookin' to see who has some advice on this trial and error subject. Btw it's 2001 A4.

no, you dont need to increase your shift points. your gonna float a valve if you go up any higher....your making good power at where the limiter is at wait til you get a cam and get longer rods, and springs etc...then you can talk bout throwing your shifts up to 7000!!!

dont worry about shift point until you do a valvetrain upgrade unless you are into breaking stuff....
