I don't use 6th gear at anything lower than 100km/h, if I'm doing 90km/h on cruise because of someone in front of me I keep it in 5th otherwise you drop the revs too low in 6th even though the car will still pull along.
Overtaking I always go back to 4th at 100km/h to get her moving.
Most of the time I shift up by 2500 RPM, but if I'm hammering it she pulls freakin' hard up to redline now, no more struggle past 3500 RPM like when it was factory.
Also car has back in the shop due to the tune being a touch too smokey off boost, but they've found an issue which explains some of the issues I had with the car in the past even when it was stock.
Appears the in tank lift pump has died some time ago and the car was relying on the injection pump to pull the fuel out of the tank.
So once thats replaced it will be interesting to see how we go.
