What is a good setting to put for the rev

I've been playing around with the rev option setup but have yet to come up with a good setting. What is a good setting to set my rev for and why?

I'm pretty good at shifting but I just have yet to feel out where I'm comfortable at for the rev.

Spoon- lol I hear ya. I'm surprised that I have yet to receive some nice state greeting cards yet lol.

at 7300, how good is when you downshift? The reason why I ask is because I been seeing alot of people setting their setting to around like 2100-2300

I haul ass!!! Being serious my friend who races his Mustang suggested 7300. Downshifting has not been an issue for me.

I keep mine off. Only used it during the 1000 mile break in period to nag me when I was getting overzealous with the engine > 4K.

If I'm casually driving, I let the conditions (traffic, acceleration, road incline/decline, straights/curves) dictate appropriate shift points. If I'm pushing it, I just need to know where redline is, and the OEM indicator doesn't go that high anyway.

My guess is that they have it set low to remind them to shift for economy. 2100-2300 is just about the earliest that you can shift without lugging the next gear.

Mine is at 6500 and to me is more of a warning. To draw my attention to the tach. To be honest it's so quiet I don't hear it 90% of the time it goes off. And I am watching out my windshield not the tach.

When the car is stopped (possibly only in acc mode, I forget) it is one of the options under odo/trip or disp.
