6500 RPM is correct.

Just curious, why is it higher on a non MS vs an MS?

BTW thx for the reply,

Honestly, I'm not sure. It's probably related to keeping the number of service/warranty calls down (High RPM + Max Boost + etc).

Im guessing tranny is different. I bet you could just throw in a bottle or 2 of naws and it would change your tranny. Worked for Brian E Spilner.

Thx guys/gurls

gearing is the same as the normal 6speed though. The car lacks the variable cam timing that the non Mazdaspeed cars have.

So which one is quicker? I would imagine having the variable valves would be a benefit for pwr gains. I guess thats what gives it a higher redline.

The turbo on the MS makes it the quickest, hands down. Also, my '99 does not have the vvt, and it redlines at 7200.

redline is 6500...fuel cutoff is 7k
