I don't understand how you can be hitting the limiter ALL THE TIME, what gear ratios you running?

Id be revving it harder if its hitting limiter too quick

7200rpm ftw!

Also increases your power band. Some people will argue that raising it is bad, but you shouldnt be hitting it hard all the time .. if you are learn to drive a gear higher and learn to live with lag mopey89

You're accidently hitting limiter too often so you're thinking of lowering it from 7 to 6k rpm, so you can...hit it more often

Your setup can't be THAT laggy, just give yourself time to get used to the different setup and you'll be able to grab the next gear with ease.

get some stiffer valve springs and solid lifters and enjoy high RPM action at 8000rpm.

OR

Get a good quality shift light or maybe one of those progressive shift lights (i-shift?) that was in the group buy recently.
