Default What rpm does your window switch go off?

The way the installer had it set up is to go off at 5800 (on at 3k) and I had the shiftlight to go off at 6000 rpms. Which was 200rpms without juice (bad!).
The best I could pull was a 12.5 @ 117mph, I just ordered the 6000 rpm window switch.
What does everyone have their window switch set at and what RPM's are you shifting at?

Thanks.

Basically, you want to shift before the window ends, but you want the window to end before the reve limiter.

For example:

My Rev Limiter = 6700
Window = 3000 - 6400
Shift at = 6100

This way I don't rev too high on the juice and hurt something. If you hit the limiter while you are still in the window, you are screwed. Because the PCM pulls fuel out when you hit the limiter, so you will spike lean at high rpm.

Hey mike long time no see. I see you have some work done to your ride...10.1!!! Damn... I see you went to an auto as well. How's the Cartek work holding up?

I'm getting ready to hit the valley this year to try and get a lil faster then the 12.5 @ 117mph I have going on now...

Thanks for the info guys, I'll have to set my shift light at 5900 and the window at 6000rpm.
Headers are my next power mod once i'm done making the outside look a lil better.
