peak acceleration comes from peak power and gearing. If your power peak comes at 7500 for example, you'd be mad to set a limiter lower than that. If you have a limiter at 8000, you can choose whether to rev to 6800 or 8000. if you have a limiter at 6800, you don't have a choice.
I think the key word here is 'peak' ! This is not a competition car, no time attack, drag runs, hill-climbs.....just a road car with perhaps some track-day fun once or twice a year with nothing to prove.
Let's be clear, it'll be mapped, dyno-run and a graph presented which'll determine peak power, torque and the drop off - eiither a smooth falling away or sudden death ! From that I'll decide at which revs to set the cut-out which I'm anticipating to be at 6800 as I have no shift light. I have Speedhut gauges but preferred the classic look of no LEDs (see photo).
If I had a steel billet crank, I'd probably go higher....but that would be over-spec for a road car.
I always believed that acceleration derives from toruque, top speed from power - over-simplified I know as quite correctly gearing plays a huge part. I have a stock-geared S13 box and a Scooby 3.54 LSD. If later, I want to swap out the diff I have spares but MZR runs these with no compliants.
