Default safe revs for the K20A ITR motor?

what would be a safe redline for an ITR motor bone stock? and when do they stop making power on stock internals?

Bone stock K20a hits its peak power at 8k rpm.
Safely revved IMO, would be 8500 if its stock.
There is no point revving higher if its not making power right?

The new K-series engines were designed by a former HKS engineer. In building it, he thought about high performance and aftermarket products and ad-ons. He knows that many of the people that buys RSX will want to benefit most out of their engines, so therefore, many red lines would be expected. Therefore he designed it in a way that the engine would be able to handle high redlines and alot of it. So as for the new K series, it is safe to go into redline, but then again, every car has its limits...
