I'm not sure if I should be going to the Nationals or not, based on this information. If I can't take my ride, I'm not going. It would break my heart to see that many nice cars being up there without mine and thinking, so close but yet so far. Sad

I had another thought, but don't know if it's worth considering... has anyone run-in their car on a dyno before? What's the deal with this? I hear it only takes two hours, then it's run-in. Confused Anyone want to clarify on this?

I originally got Pennzoil 0W/40 grade, but by the sounds of it I should be using this much later. So the changing of oil intervals - 500km, 1500km and 5000km? It's been a while since I last ran in an engine, and it was completely different to this.

I will have a boost gauge on mine, as well as a turbo timer (which I plan on hooking up to the alarm). Cool
