I have been to the track with a 3:73 car that is non Brembo and no tune just a cold air/horrible driver. I do not hit the limiter and shift at 6,800-7,000. The non brembo cars with the 245/45 19 is a 27.7 inch tall tire which helps. The brembo guys have a 255/40 19 which is a 27 inch tall tire. That is part of the reason for the rev limiter issue. The 3:73 do get you in the band nicely.
