Default Break-in over today

First time to 8k.............WOW! Kicks in just when anything else would be screaming in pain, just begging to be shifted. WOW!

How do you not want to take it up there nearly every time. Top was down and I was just imagining how sweet a subtle low rumble of a just right exhaust system would sound.

Unfortunately, I get into VTEC mostly every time just to hear the HKS sound...

I will pass my 500 mile clutch break-in tomorrow! Except that I'll be taking it to the dealership for the 30k service.

That Check-Engine light is getting the best of me. I need to turn that light off. We'll see what they say tomorrow.

Take it up to the 9K redline, it's even more fun. The car will get stronger as you put some more miles on it. Makes it even more fun.
