I shift at 3500-4k with around 50 percent throttle unless I'm stuck in traffic or have a reason to drive really slowly. Driving a 7.8:1 turbo car at 2k rpm out of boost defeats the purpose of having a modified sports car, in my opinion. I like having good acceleration around town and I don't really mind a small penalty in gas mileage.
