to be honest, we have only sold a few of them here. I become so close to a lot of my customers that I usually will tell them to just save there money and buy it from trdsparks or mcgeorgeparts
But in essence, I dont really believe in break in periods too much...Id say the first 100 miles or so are gonna be the most crucial to begin with so dont go blasting on it like your about to junk the car but also dont be afraid to get on it a little bit. Im different than a lot of other people...I break my stuff in moderately hard, but not overstressing anything. My cars, my bikes, they all get broken in the same way...RPM variance...I feel that it gives proper piston ring seal to bring it up close to redline gradually within the first 20 miles at least twice...call me crazy
