Simple
If you have completely stock car, shifting right before the redline, which is past the peak/highest h.p. the car produces is fine.

When you get moded & tuned, the peak h.p. redline, & turq & h.p power curve changes. You also want mods & tune that give you a longer steady flat top h.p. chart, instead of a quick up to the highest h.p peak & a quick fall. Even if that H.P. is higher!!!!

I can guarantee a twelve second 370z with only doing 3 things to the car.

If you know how to drive these 3 things will make the car quicker & faster than any other mods you do. N/A of course

1)Good tires for traction a must-The first 60' feet is where you lose or gain the most of your 1/4 mile run.
2)4:08 gearing-That makes the car get going quicker & gets quicker to the desired shifting point after each shift.
3) Its a two parter. Take off the power robbing cats & replace them with test pipes with a mandatory(because of the change) TUNE!! Don't forget to raise the redline.

Don't bother with intakes/exhaust or anything else. The car will be a twelve second car.

This part is not correct RPM drop between shifts is an agreement between the engine and transmission, and the car doesn't even need a differential installed to know exactly what the drop is.

I think you're right. The rest of the statement is correct.
