Hmm I guess my speedo isn't so accurate up there. Makes sense though, since at 3500RPM it's at 65ish. (TII, 7k redline)

I just had a question as to what the actual content of the "see owners manual" response was. If you could confirm when you have some spare time that would be great!

Also, I guess I appreciate everyone's input even though it wasn't what I asked for, when I can get Mazda's baseline confirmed it will be interesting to see how different people's tuning and driving style deviate from the baseline. Of course this just may all be numbers for fun as I suspect Mazda would be rather conservative with their figures, but I think its still interesting.

Same with turbo. I don't shift into 5th until i'm going at least 60. Otherwise, it's just sooo slow.
