#21107, "How do I break this puppy in?"




          

My HRC stage 1 is in the mail and I was wondering if there are a set amount of miles I'm required to drive without going WOT before I can start really seeing what it can do.

Unless the motor is new, there is no "break-in" for the kit. Install it, tune it, tear it up.

Your beak in period starts when you push in the gas pedal with your foot and it ends when you hit the floor with the pedal. My guess would be .000001 miles and about a half second.

Actually, most people choose to put the car in first before they go wot, but hey.. if reverse is your thing.. go for it.
