I got Supertech double springs and retainers and seats HKS 272's Power enterprises timing belt and balance shaft belt and ARP rod and head bolts.
I'm at 7800 right now, what do you guys think?

8000-8200 but I wouldn't do it all the time. If its the occasional hold 4th at the end of the 1/4 mile to help traps thats fine. For just typical racing or driving 7800 works. Stock rod bolts dont like 8k+ for very long.

Your safe higher than your stock turbo is going to pull well.. On the shot that might help topend a lot though.

I'd set my revlimit around 94-9500 and shift at 9.

Built heads and rodbolts. Did you tq the rodbolts correctly?
