I think one of the points of going to the Motronic engine management would
be to chip it, and any decent chip is not going to cut-out any time soon.

The GIAC chip in my Motronic system has a 7900 rpm redline.  Seems like
enough.  Just follow the general guide lines for converting CIS-E to
Motronic found on scirocco.org, and you'll be alright.  I do have to
update the site with some new findings though, and that is that the
system acts a bit better with the Motronic fuel pressure regulator vs
the CIS-E one...and this is not mentioned on the conversion page.
