The engine between the 2003 and the 2000 hasn't changed much though the red line in the 2000 is at 7800rpm and the 2003 is at 8400rpm *Exact figures I can't remember*.
This is what was taken off the Toyota.com.au Website on the engine.

The earlier models were redlined at 7800RPM and fuel cutoff is at 8300RPM or thereabouts. I believe the Corolla Sportivo is redlined at 8300, I don't know if the current Celica is redlined any higher or not, certainly the UK & Japanese models were. In any case maximum performance can only be realised by changing as close to fuel cut as possible to try and keep the engine on the high lift cam.
