Default is this good driving?

is revving the motor up to 3-4k as daily driving a good limit? will it be easier on the motor and gas ?

yes.

shift at 3k for best fuel economy, always keeping the engine between 2k and 3k, higher than that you'll be using too much fuel, lower than 2k you're lugging the engine...

well when my car was working decent

i stay under 4k most of the time, except trying to outrun large trucks and vehicles that block my off ramp merge =P

why slow down when u can pass em.

and for some reason i have to hear my blower at least once a day, so i hit the boost and it makes keeping rpms under 4k a hard task.

for the past month i hardly drove it, local guy did a shitty *** timing belt job, but it got fixed today, so ima try to get her tuned sometime soon.
