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. 
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. 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).
