Default Neon Question

I have a question on my 2001 neon es. I know that with my friends crx it redlines at 6500 but i stops producing power at about 6400. Does anyone know when the certain RPM would be on a my neon. I have a cold air intake, header, and catback exhaust also if that would make a difference.

You have to find a place that has a dyno. Its a machine that you put your car on with rollers. It is connected to a computer and give you your power curve along with a lot of other things. The place by me charges like $75 to dyno a car.

Dynos cost about 500-600 dollars around here i don't know how much they are other wise. I don't have the money to dyno i was just curious if anyone knew what it would be for on a stock neon.

What???? Thats crazy, it can't be right. It is not that complicated of a process. My friend paid $50 when he had his vette done. It shouldn't be more than $100, and thats high.
