How high to rev before shifting in each gear?

BWahhahhahhhahhhahahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until the advent of computerized engine controls, the only rev limiter was your foot and the physical limits of rods and valve springs. I owned six vehicles before my first EFI car. Only my '72 Cutlass had rev limiter of sorts, it would float the valves at about 5500 rpm. Aftermarket coil packs sometimes had rev limiters built in.

As for the dyno comment, that was half-assed. To be completely-assed, you shift at the point where the rising torque in the next gear equals the falling torque in the current gear to achieve maximum acceleration.

Otherwise, shift whatever the hell rpm you want that's allowed by the ECU. I grandpa my G for the most part because I'm not Big Bank Hank and can't afford to fill up every other day.
