I know the dyno would be the smartest but relatively speaking I should be ok right?
Dude, them strokers like to SPIN! Right now I'm launching at 6000 and shifting at 7500. After you get it broken in, take it out and beat on it. Especially with an aluminum wheel, that thing is gonna rev FAST, and more importantly, it's gonna like it!
