I recently got a dx hb and put a short intake, header on it, and replaced gaskets/belts and all.... where should I shift at? The sites I read say 6800 ,but I usually just shift at 6000.....

 

its 6800. shift a little after redline, so you dont drop down your rpm's much. you better be doing that redlining on a track.

 

6400, fuel cut is 6800

Heres the tach on my Civic LX (D15B7 with stock tachometer)

You can clearly see the 6400 RPM redline:

 

weird. maybe thats just LX. i had a 6800 RPM redline in my Sol S (also D15B7).

huh ? why would the LX have a diffrent D15B7 ? makes no sense bud

 

i dunno. weird though. let me look through my pictures. it has been a long time since i've seen that car.

 

sorry. looks like 6400.

 

actually the d15b7 has fuel cut at 6400,

same as the redline,
but you'll think it'll let you dip into redline a bit because our tachs are off.

take it to a dyno you should see it cut off at 6400 even though the tach tells you it cuts at 6800

 

6400

that's cool.
canadian LX don't have a tach...

 

my 93 del sol S was 6800... I'm not sure what the difference is, but if you need a picture for proff, I'll take one...
