I did a few tests on the way home, and on the 7AT, 7500 RPM is definitely the where the rev limiter kicks in. This was with my Uprev tune, I didn't think to try the stock tune, but the rev limiter was supposed to be left the same.

In my completely uneducated opinion, I don't think there is any real difference in engine wear if you are shifting around 7k rpm and 7.5k rpm. They put the rev limit at 7.5k rpm for a reason. Someone feel free to disagree with a more educated reason on why this isn't correct, please.
