okay...im getting my car back next week...monday...my tuner said he will have everything in there turbo everything....but i wont be boostin yet because he said i need to break in the new parts in the engine ...piston , rods, etc...is that true....if soo damn!!!...he told me hes gonna tune it to the new parts in the engine....and ima get it back and drive it for 3000 then send it back to him so he can do the final tuning...with the turbo....that f@ckin sucks *** i been waiting for it for a while...aahhh!!!!but you gotta do what you gotta do right....i least when i open my hood its goona look nice i guess...
is 3000 necessary?? i thought 1500 would be fine??

 

i think 1K miles is fine. Just make sure not to use synthetic oil for the first few oil changes.

 

y??

 

Well actually I remember you have to change you oil ever 500 for the first 1500 miles and not to drive the car hard.

 

You actually have to wait 3000 miles for the rings to set in.

 

sooo 3000??

 

you're right, probably got to break it in....what sup with these new things telling you someone deleted their post, thats gaay hahah

 

ima break it in...im not gonna let 5350 go to waste...

 

I have not seen anyone break it for that long. I have seen new build with a few hundred miles and then dyno tuned so I dont think its really that big of a deal. WHen I built my motor, I broke it in for around 1500 miles before dyno tunning. Then waited another 1000 miles for the final tune. So I 1.5 -2 K miles is efficent enough for the rings to set in. All u want to do is stay below 5K rpm while u are breaking her in.

 

because synthetic oil is too slick and it doesn't allow the engine to break in properly. on normal engines it is advised not to use synthetic oil until you hit 12,000 miles. I have no idea about breaking for a built motor though.

 

yeah ima just run it to 3000 miles just to be safe and break every single part in....i was thinking of putting my car on my friends smog tester and just running it?? plus i would save some rubber too what do you guys think??

 

I feel like 1K is fine, if theres an issue you'll know. I wouldn't do the smog thing since theres no load. you could always do a dyno(load based) breakin and be done in a day and only a few miles. you just want to seat the rings( and quicker is better) and run the motor for a little before pushing 15 psi on it. I think you can do dyno breakin in like 50 miles and I would drive it around for a week and make sure theres no issues. google engine breakin methods drive it like you stole it. theres a convincing article that some bike builder did on running it hard( in a methodic manner). but I'm not an engine builder nor is it my 5.5K new engine.

 

thanks guys for your opinion
