It goes up to the 7500 rpm redline up to 4th gear.

It pulls pretty strongly from 4500 rpm as compared to a stock motor.

The only thing that I did to the EFI was disabling the EGR valve and
adjusting the AFM for more gas.

It's smooth, doesn't backfire and I've only run it that hard twice.

Nope. No AFMonitor.

Dwell is OK. I reduced the spark plug gap the 2nd time. Coil? Rotor
is new.
