In which case mike, you better keep that for yourself for going against my advice and telling him not to change up from 4th where its maxed out the injectors due to the high rpm and into 5th where its in the midrange and is perfectly fine.

Chip,
I stand by my comment, as up that hill in an Escort with 803s, he wouldn't pull more than 5500rpm in fourth. Short shifting will mean he will end up slap bang in peak torque in fifth and be loading the car at that peak boost longer than I would personally want. Revving the car harder will see the boost tailing off, rather than staying in the peak threshhold (where it is designed to be revved through pretty quickly ). So have that back .
