You shouldn't rev to 3k

Thats silly. Are you afraid you will break your car??

I shift at 3000-3500. Its quite smooth at that range for me and I can fly through the gears.

Cant believe some of the stuff in this thread.lol

Maybe he meant launching at 3K. I usually shift at 3K+ as well, but launching continually at 3K would be rather hard on the clutch.

I can agree with this. Im not sure how much of this our clutch will take. I am curious to find out. Ive launched at 3500 about 6 times since buying my car last Feb. Still no problems...yet.lol Sure thatll change under boost though.
