Is there really any point? Max torque and power will be well before the redline anyway.

Got to agree there really is no point, especially with a low powered 1.4 8V engine

Why do you want one anyway? If you are looking to fit one then ideally you would want it set at around 5500rpm, possibly 6K depending on the redline
