So what is a good heart rate to reach when doing HIIT?

I use the RPE- ''rate of perceived exertion chart'' in my class rather than stopping to check a HR, and that still depends on each person's fitness level. where 1 is sleeping level, 10 is heart exploding effort, call ems!, the high intensity segments should be up in the 7-9 range- full out effort, not able to talk and work... and then drop back to 5-6 range between bursts.
