    Eh, if you shift slightly lower at around 4700 you'll stay closer to your main powerband and will accelerate faster :thumbsup:

    "I discovered something else... There shouldn't be any issues with the front colour surround coming off as I found out what happened when I took it apart.. It was my fault [​IMG]

    During my S/C install I broke the passenger side black circle clip, and forgot to ever replace it, the vibes from the high speeds ended up breaking the passenger side lower rectangular clip. both clips broken cause enough movement to slowly tear off the colour surround from the passenger side [​IMG]"
