define "healthy" Will it go past 90? Yup. Not sure if it will hurt the engine any, I am pretty sure it shouldn't if your engine is in good working order.

He's talking out his ***. It's not going to hurt anything.

High RPMs is what's hard on an engine, and over time will eventually lead to problems. High speed, in and of itself, is not bad.

The redline is there for a reason. If you don't go over it the car could really care less how fast you're going. I wouldn't go hauling *** on stock tires though... I just don't trust them.
