Default Best shift points

Put in my jet stage II chip over the weekend. Sure in nice to not have tc lockup all the time.
I want to fine tune the shift points now. Where would you guys say the best point would be from 1st to 2nd at WOT?
4500??
5000??

All input most welcome.

Thanks guys!

I know I've seen some reference regarding what rpm the xfire runs out of breath. For optimal continued acceleration, one would shift before that occurs??
That's really what I'm after, perhaps my previous post was unclear.

thanks again guys!!

It would help if we knew what year/engine you had. :)
