Depending on the work completed you want to make sure you seat the valves/rings before exceeding capacity (adding boost).

I've rebuilt my 1G DSM a few times now and the best way I found to seal the rings was to take it easy for the first 2 gas tank fulls (about 500km) and then you can start having fun.

What have you done to the car since I've seen it last BTW?

I'm not breaking in a new motor, atleast not on any cars that i own right now, maybe the car i get for next summer i might but we'll see what it ends up being.

Haven't done muc of anything to it since you saw it. I think I'm pretty much done with major mods to it, trying to decide what my project car for next summer is going to be. The rims were a nice way to finish off the look.
