well, seeing as you have a rev limiter...

I would say 8.5K max. You are gonna make your power at the higher rpms, but your stock computer is not tuned at high rpms. Definately no sustained high rpms as the apex seals (I assume you do not have ceramic seals) are not tough enough to withstand hitting the housings - even though you have 3mm seals.
