XHP Best Shift Points?

Hey guys, I know there was a discussion a while ago regarding XHP and our platform; however I'm looking for thoughts on what will be the best shift points and max rpms for our cars? I have a 435 xDrive with 8AT. I'm on stage 3 XHP tune and BM3 Stage 2 93 OCT. I'm looking for a fast auto shifting experience in D mode & and responsive/fun auto shifting experience in S modes; along with fast 0-60 times. Thanks in advance!

I found that early shifting my stg2hpfp e40 b58 yields at least 2mph better traps, i shift at 6k.
I recommended the same to a friend of mine who has a holt on e30 tune n55 and gained a couple of tenths as well

For first gear you should be shifting at 4500 rpm. 2nd gear should be 5500 and all other gears should be 6k.

I tried this and tend to agree so far. I used no launch control, sport+ and got the best 0-60 time. Are these rpms when the stock turbo runs out of gas in each gear?

About that yes. I tend to usually shift at 3rd and above at 6,400 max. It runs out of steam after that.
