Umm... the power on the F20C falls off at 8300, too... so does that mean that you shouldn't rev it to 9K? No. You continue revving past peak power because you're taking advantage of the torque multiplier of the lower gear. You want to keep going until wheel torque in current gear is less than wheel torque in next higher gear.

^ Look around the boards and you'll probably see a handful of people revving the F22 to 9K. Sure, they may not hit 100K miles on that engine, but when you're striving for performance, sometimes you're willing to sacrifice a bit of longevity. I also know of a boosted F20C that's turning >9.5K RPMs. Boost+High Revs is just asking for failure, but he does it anyway.
Anyway, if the original poster has the funds to do the engine swap to begin with, who's to say that he doesn't have the funds to replace the engine if it blows?

I run my 2.2 to 8500rpm, it really helps out with not banging off the rev limiter or dropping out of vtec on a lousy shift
plus it increases the power under the curve a lot, I put several cars on a stock AP2 the other night, all I have is intake and test pipe along with the MY01 ecu
