New Engine Break In Procedures

Anybody ever heard of this break in procedure:

http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

After reading the article, I'm too late anyway with 180 miles.

Has anyone done this?

There was a big thread a while back where people were arguing over whether or not this guys ideas held water. If you run a search you should be able to find it. The best way to break in our engines has been a much discussed topic of debate.

Either way, just enjoy your new car!

I don't believe in it......I go by what the manufacturer suggests.

G/L and enjoy the new G.

i happen to believe that there is no way that you can affect the breakin.

from the factory, the G35 is dynoed and taken up to 100mph right outside the assembly line. This is when the most "breaking in" happens (at the first few miles)

baby it if you want.
