Default What would a safe redline be for this setup?

What's a safe redline for this:

B16a
Eagle stroker 2.0 crank
GE Block
85mm JE's
Crower rods
ACL bearings
Crower stainless 1mm oversized intake and exhaust valves
Crower dual coil vave springs
Titanium retainers
Rev Hard 2 pushing 15PSI or so
5> valve job
Silicone/Bronze guides
AEM EMS
900cc injectors
MSD digital 6

Just getting some info before I get this thing on the road (hopefully in the fall). Thanks

Let us know at what RPM it blows up. Safe RPM is 500 RPM below that. :D

Agreed. Theres no need to take it to 9000rpm if you stop making power at say 8000rpm.

What turbocharger do you have? If it's properly sized you will still be making hp at 8,000 - 8,500 RPM with an 85mm bore. I wont say the same for your torque though. If it were my motor 8800 RPM would be my rev limiter.

This was turbosi03 stroked B16a @ 14lbs with a Drag III kit, blown head gasket and sinking JG sleeves.
