Some how I've confused myself so a little point in the right direction is needed.
When setting up gears you always try and find the final gear so that its just hitting optimal point just before the breaking point of the corner, and then move other gears so there are evenly balanced but on a simlar scale for the corners they are needed for.
But that said if we were to take a Seat Leon and the info provided then this is where I get all confused.
Seat Leon info
Engine: 2000 CC
Horsepower 287 BHP @ 7750 RPM
Max Torque 272 Nm @ 6750 RPM
So going of the above the optimal gear point is 7750 RPM, per gear.
