Not really, but why would you want to? The optimum shift points for most engines, and even more so for a 1.8t with its long flat torque curve, is below redline. Redline is the maximum speed the manufacturer "suggests" the engine turn at. It is not a marker telling you where to shift for maximum acceleration or performance :-)
