Well, I am taking a couple weeks off in Sept for some track days and I have an appointment with Wheel to Wheel for a dyno run. I will go to Milan or Norwalk at that time, but I may make it to Milan sooner if I have a free Wed or Fri for test and tune. PM me and let me know where you live and tell me about your setup. I would definately want another TT at the track. Kevin

David, 1st and 2nd is instant 1.2 bar down low and 3rd comes on around 2500. Pretty much all boost all the time. Kevin.

KPG, I am going thru this break in as well. It is painful. I am following his instructions to a T, however, how do I know when it is totally etched in? I don't wrech my own car, and no clue how to check the turbos. Anyway you can tell from the drivability if its well broken in?

Ryan, if you follow his instructions to the letter and perhaps go above and beyond you will have no problems. You can easily check the inlet of the turbo and as long as no oil is in there you are OK. Might see a little grey dust from the wheel etching the coatings but that is normal.As for when it is broken in, when you are free of restrictions and mash the gas and have all boost all the time...I think you are OK . Drop me a note when you finally hit the road with no restrictions, I am eager to hear you thoughts.The breakin is short term pain for long term gain. You will not be disappointed! Kevin G
