Default Post breakin "testing" ...

Took place on a deserted, uphill (really!), straight, elevated (on a levee) country road at midnight. So far, just a one-time event. It accelerated nicely all the way to the limiter. On another "what does this boat do?" run on the same road, my curious buddy was shocked to see us at 120 just after he mentioned how quiet the cabin was. He was afraid to go faster so I just cruised at 120 for a while. Smooth as silk.

I will be in Montana later this month - too bad the speed limit is back at 75! After a bit of "turbo testing" in the rockies I may decide to enhance the ECU if no new turbo noises are apparent.
