6200 is not what I would consider a high reving engine.

That 6200 is peak power, not redline.
Like all toyota's, redline will be 6500.
But with a stroke of 83mm, nice cams, and proper exhaust, 9000rpm+ redline is very acheivable

No one, but since that motor will bolt into pretty much any RWD toyota with the right bellhousing, it provides a nice base for modification.

This motors big brother, the 1GR-FE is what you find in the smaller 4wd's.
Same motor, just a much bigger stroke...
