My mechanic told be to be easy for 250 miles ( no boost), I have a new clutch disk too.
After driving a rental cobalt for 3 weeks I can't wait any longer.

Wait the 250. Especially for the clutch. Why waste all the hard work and money by being impatient?

Default damn 250 is early, I waited like 500 before I even installed the AVCR

and upped the boost. then I waited another 100 before I really gave it a hard 1-2 shift. Lit up the tires on the shift though

I would be flooring it right now. Besides, an S4 won't pull a fat kid off a tricycle w/o boost.

Agreed. Floor that bitch.... with the clutch up. No fast shifts or launches for 500mi would be wise

Default LOL, ok I confess, I may have hit it a few times ..

but only while in a gear, and never in first. no hard shifts. I honestly babied it for a good 600 miles before I commenced the beatings. Now-a-days I enjoy losing traction on the 1-2 shift

I sure do have your MBC sir, let me know when I can stop by the crib and drop it off .. maybe we can try to change some of my idle settings too if you have some time email me

But even once he's in gear and clutch fully out, wouldn't the clutch still slip until its broken in?

Default No id romp on that baby.. just no launches.. breakin is just to be on the safe side..not needed IMO

Never treated my RS4 nicely when I got it just no launches for awhile.
