Thanks!
I'm so happy now knowing I have a crispy new motor in there to work with for later. I'm still in the break in period so I have 1500 miles of babying the car to do before I can do anything fun and exciting

yeah it was some work getting the dealership to cave and give me the motor. I had all the oil changes done on schedule at the dealership too and they still gave me a hard time before finally caving in and giving it to me. I'm was under warranty on the old motor for 75,000 miles and aI was only at 58,000 when I brought it in with OC issues

Pics tonight or tomorrow for sure of the new engine and all my CF pieces back in place
