RPM question
I just recently purchased a 2005 997.1 and am wondering what RPM i should drive at? Im thinking between 3-4k but i would like to hear from some experienced drivers that have this car! Thanks

Under normal driving conditions, I like to keep it between 3 & 4 k RPM's. Does this sound about right?

Your peak HP is generated about 6800-7200 rpm.
At first, it will feel like you really need to shift, but you will get used to the revs.
Fir starters, try not to shift up until 5000.
It is an adjustment
