Soooooooo, I have an autocross event at the same big venue as last month and with my 4.10 rear and T5 2nd gear I'm running out of RPMs. Using an online calculator I came up with a max safe RPM of the stock 6250, however I've been running it up to 7000 soft limit and 7250 hard limit. Even if it's not pulling hard I need those extra 10ths. I have B23 with RSI H beam rods and B23ET stock Mahle pistons which I believe are forged with the stock pin and of course the stock forged flat plane crank. Can I get another 100-200 rpm without detaching a piston from the rod? This is the venue:
