Yeah, saying we can do higher than stock redlines or that we can sustain stock redline for cumulatively long periods of time on stock gears because spec miata does it discounts the fact that spec miata runs very light weight oils for reduced drag and constantly rebuild their engines including replacing oil pumps.

Your absolutely pointless choice to become disrespectful will earn you some other type of points. You have continuously been an arrogant *** throughout this thread and we don't need you. Maybe you need 90 days to think about your attitude.

Falling off of a torque peak of ~200 from 5500 rpm up says the 1.6 can't breathe as well as it should. Needs bigger something. I'm thinking engine.
The 1.6 has smaller head ports and more restrictive intake, iirc.

Well, now we have the answer to the original question: Max rpm on my build?
No need to rev past 6800 because no more power anyway.
And no power below 4K either, but that is another story.

Gt2560r<br />newest fm manifold<br />ported and polished head with oversize valves<br />stock intake mani<br />im thinking that the intake mani needs to change to a custom unit. looking at options including making a sealed itb unit<br />the six speed really helps keep me in the power .<br />help with this besides "saying change to a 1.8" is very welcome. My aim is the 280 to 335whp range
