If redlining final drive in the 8AT is possible...

7th is an overdrive gear as well actually... A few bolt-ons/remap should resolve this. A new exhaust, for instance!!
I assume the 6th gear in the MT is an overdrive too?
I believe it's slightly too tall for 155mph and redline, but not too much.
155mph in the 330d 6MT allowed for 600-700rpm more 'till rev limiter.
