(Help me out!!) |
"break-in refers" to the process of how you drive your car for the first 1200 miles or so. the recommended process (though there are some conflicting ideologies on this topic) is that for the first 1200 miles, you keep the engine below 5000 rpm. once you've done this for the first 1200 miles, the engine is considered "broken in" and you can then go on to drive the car at full throttle. (the other school of thought is "no break in" where people just go full throttle on the car from the very first mile)
regarding performance mods - you can install these at any time including during your engine's break in period. the only problem is that if you install them during your break in period, you won't be able to notice a performance difference before and after your installation. why? because during your break in period you can't truly feel the performance of the car anyway given that you're always under 5k rpms (which for this car is nothing).
My logic on this topic was to wait until i had broken in my car to install my performance mods, that way I would at least feel the difference before and after.
