FYI, 3S-GE BEAMS Dual VVT-i "Black Top" makes 210HP @ 7600 RPM. That equates to 105HP/L *and* it makes peak power below 8000 RPM.
True the optimum rev curve is usually up to where the peak HP is, but personally on dynos of my car show the power does not die off after that, It still makes good torque up to 8400 rpm. It is best to shift as close to redline as possible. It also ensure, you can land at as high rpms as possible in the next gear, which is crucial for a high revving car that needs to be kept screaming. The 2002 Celica GTS with 7800 rpm limit was slower than the 2000, 2001 Celica GTS with 8400 rpm limit.
The new Lexus LF-A will be Toyota's next high-revving car. It will probably rev up to 9000 rpm.

Your car; you sure you aren't mixing things up? I thought you had a 2ZZ-GE, not a 3S-GE .
And yes, the LF-A V10 engine will be Toyota's next high revving engine, and it will be the highest revving production Toyota engine in history. Rumours say it will rev to at least 9000 RPM or possibly beyond 9000 RPM. We're talking extensive use of F1 technology here .

Yep I am very excited to see the LF-A. It sounds gorgeous and is a powerhouse around the race track.
this doesn't make any sense, it takes 4.9 sec for a 500hp car to do 0-60? ...
nahh i doubt it lolz, the 350 can do it in 5.1 and car and driver or another mag wrote they testes it on the track and it did it in 4.9 so if that ima save myself the 15-20k n get the 350
WTF are you talking about? If you don't know, how about you shut up and learn, or at least research, and at least TRY and prove me wrong and present facts to prove such before you or anybody else claim I post misinformation (not in the military/gov't here....how about you pick up an English class?) ANYWHERE on this board.
I grew up around these motors, I know what they are made of, what they are capable of and what they did stock. Official specs are easily found in their workshop manuals and on the internet as well, so you could have taken the time to check before you stick your foot in your mouth.
Don't blame me, it's just what my dealer sent me. I kinda trust him, cause this dealer is realy attending all events all across europe and talks to all japanese people there.
I believe its maybe misspelled number, but deep inside me I WANT to believe it is TRUE!
