drive normally its should be ok but just try not to red line it for at least 2000km's

hey dont pussy foot it but dont rev it to 7k. drive it normal and giv it a lil bit cos its all in the running in process that counts. Its fact that 2 of the same cars outa the factory being run in. 1 being driven normal with a bit of pushing and the other being granny driven proved that the 1 that was pushed was more powerful. Like i said b4 tho, no redlining tho.

turbo b18 ha? hmm i was thinking of doing that got 3 quotes with t04 turbo and internals changed plus sleeving the block,all 3 quotes were $12000 - $18000,i thought hard and thought its not worth it ,il rather save up and get a S2000 less headache,good luck with the job
