There is no reason to rev it that high, there isn't any power up there anyways on a stock motor.



Look at this link, then click on the graph for the L31 motor.

Notice how sharply the horsepower falls after peak (4600rpm). Even the torque is poor above 4k.



The tuner may move your peak HP a little bit higher, but there still is no reason to spin the stock rotating assembly that fast.
