The engine then learns to cope with how much pressure you put it under and will make a crisper engine. that's what I was told- whatever truth is in it im not sure, but have been giving mine regular squirts. Its just so darn hard not to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful that there's no one behind you when you do this. It's best to try it on the freeway/highway but you can still do it in 1st and 2nd on normal roads.All in all, drive the fuker like you stole it and the internals will bed in nicely and go hard for all it's life Edited 12/09/08 11:41 PM by R-SPEC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
