Didn't realize I put 7k, I actually held it at 6500 and it pulled pretty hard. I didn't want to press my luck and actually red line it due to the mileage.

As far as running better goes, I run it always in a gear lower than I probably should so i'm always above 3k. The Sporty seems to like the 3000-4500 range best.
