Theres alot of different things to take into account like weather, track, altitude, driver, car, motor etc etc etc but I have a jdmb16 in my crx and it use to run 14.3-14.5 when I first did the swap. Best thing to do is just go run it at the track and find out.

Mines a gutted out DX and redline is set at 9400 but I shift at 7800 because I dont make power past 8200. Top Speed I have no idea because I've only put it at 140 but that was on the bottle.

8200 rpms is pretty much the perfect shift point. Of course you go past your power peak if thats what you mean.

You say you shift at 7.8 instead of 8.2. What kind of chip do you have? Also, Is yours just for racing, what kind of motor do you have? Is 7.8 where your motor makes the most power on just motor. What do you think your car run on motor not spraying? Are you running on steet tires or slcks. By the numbers, you have a fast REX. I have a B16 in my Civic Si. I have to get my ecu chipped. Somehow, the manufactor that the guys who did my swap sent them a auto B16 Ecu & only top out at 110 & redline at 7600. Gingas

I shift at 7800 because thats where my car starts to flatline line in my powerband so I shift there and also it doesnt drop out of VTEC either. My crx runs 13.3 off the bottle but thats on slicks, when I ran it on street tires it was 13.9-14.1's all day long.

My rough estimate would be 14.6-.8 depending on a lot of factors
