How high can I rev it?

The new L is rated at 500/500. Many of us are already over the latter number. So to reach parity with the 04+ all I need is to show more HP.
Since the eaton makes a ton of heat at high boost, I think I might be able to compensate by running more revs at a lower pulley ratio. I know the stock engine is limited to about 5600 max.

What's redline on a built motor?

With the 4-valve engine, its gonna be one hell of a screamer. You'll be doing a 180mph flyby or somthin'.

I think that 500/500 comes with the typical 8psi
