I have been running mostly highway since I picked up the car on Friday. Odo reads 750kms now. I was keeping the speed mobile (100km/h to 140km/h) the whole time so it wouldn't rev at a constant rpm. I punched it good 5 times probably not letting it get much over 6k rpm. I was thinking 750kms is good enough but I will likely wait til after 1000kms to start beating on her ;) Just curious... how did you guys break in your engines?
(always mixed reviews)

Also, the car is surging a little at low rpm when cold... any thoughts?
