shift points on an 89 TII
What are the fastest shift points on my TII?
Should I be redlining it to get the most out of every gear?
Also, why do the N/A 2nd gens have their redline at 8k and limit at 9, and the TIIs are 7k / 8k?

Power in a stock tii starts to drop off at the beginning of the redline. No point in going any higher than that.
If you want to find the ideal shift point for your car, get on a dyno and find exactly where you peak.

Then, when you are shifting, you want your revs to be high enough that when they drop they are still at or above your peak torque rpm.
The good thing aboot rotaries, is that they have a flat torque curve, so you have a bit more room to play with, eh.
