yup. everything is good.
i run my truck down the road at 70mph at 2400 rpms all day long. wont hurt a thing.

with stock dp and cat it sounds like your motor is gonna blow at that high of rpms. i know i used to be scared of it too. open the exhaust up a little and get an aftermarket dp and it wont sound bad.
