As for shifting I shift at just over 7k RPMs. No point in waiting for redline when our power peaks at 7k! Just my opinion tho...

The reason you let it rev a little past peak is because you will get more power when you hit the next gear because you will land at a higher RPM. Also if you've looked at the dyno plot the power doesn't really fall off much past peak so still more power than the next gear is going to have, plus the next gear will have a lower gear multiplier which means less power to ground.
In fairness though, the 7AT has even closer ratios than the manual so there is probably less benefit to revving the crap out of it.
