Would you aim for more RPM's, hence a near perfect R/S Ratio because more RPM's is more work done, right? Would that mean we all should be aiming for a motor that can rev higher because there will be more power gains? I.E. More torque and horsepower at 10k than 5k?

How would setting up a turbo to boost at 5k compair to 10k? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
if you're gonna boost get as close to 1.75:1 rs ratio as possible (less stress on the cylinders).... all motor keep the b20 crank. it would be hella cool having an engine that made power through 10k rpm, but the power band would be too narrow to use it with any stock tranny.... might as well keep the torque i guess.
