Haha... I understand the concept, I was just typing too fast before I left earlier. I was trying to say power drops due to oil pressure, that's my fake dyslexia popping up.

so you think there are no benefits of higher redline other than the sound?
i have a built bottom end, head, and a bigger turbo, i only want to rev as high as my power curve will take me, i know after all i have done is damn sure higher than 6200 rpms.
Sure there's benefit, otherwise the honda boys wouldn't be doing it. That's the whole principle of "replacement for displacement". By having the lesser hp/tq production be streatched out over a longer period of time, you can equal or improve upon the classic hotrod approach of more hp/tq over a shorter period of time.
The problem Like myself & Neil stated above has more to do with the head/cam & not the tune. You'll need to address those issues first before you'll achieve the results you're looking for. Besides, I wouldn't trust reving out the stock valvetrain over 7K without upgrading springs/ retainers etc...
