Trovan - you're going to lose your mind the first time you bang it through the gears to redline. The engine doesn't really come alive (IMO) until 5000 rpm and the sound it makes beyond that is coooooool.
Your car's broken in man! I did the 'modified' plan (mine that is): was <4500 for 1000 miles, then did whatever I wanted except I avoided long flat out highway runs until 2000 miles. Car runs great!!!!
