Default Shift Light RPM setting

What rpm should I set my Raptor Shift light at? I'm thinking 5600 so by the time i shift it will be close to 5800.

No money to have the car dynoed now. Underdrive pulleys, line lock, and shift light are going in on Friday, then in the next two weeks i will be getting an Xcal 2 from Modularpowerhouse. If i decide to dyno the car, then i would do it after I got the Xcal.

He did my dyno tune and it was WELL worth the $$.
Definitely not driving down to Georgia from Chicago to get a dyno tune for a bolt on car. It would be done here, then I could always send my Xcal and graphs to Tim to have him fix the tune.

When you get the XCal 2 datalog your acceleration rate, thats how you figure out where you should be shifting.
