As high as possible. Without sounding totally flippant, the higher the FEV1 the better it is in general.

where should the fev1/fvc be, on the link below it shows me as fev1 79% but i'm lost at the o.7 reading on the link.

Try looking here. Scroll down and there is a FEV chart which explains different levels/stages of COPD.
