I was told by the tech that did the install and the service manager to break it in how I plan on driving it...the service manager said drive it hard...i was pretty tame with it when I picked it up, maybe i'll open it up later, oh and we have some business to take care of soon!

I've heard this as well - as if the ECU "learns" a harder driving style and thus adapts to give more power for aggressive drivers - I wonder if this is just an urban legend though...
