Over the years I have heard the debates on engine break in. FSMs say break them in easy, while performance oriented individuals say break it in the way you intend to run it. I have heard ALL the arguments and counter arguments over the years.
Now for the first time in my life I have a fresh engine to break in that actually belongs to ME, not a customer. So now I have this internal debate. I've done both hard and soft. I have taken a brand new Saturn Sky Redline Turbo fresh off the truck and beat it like it owed me money. I have also meticulously followed Subaru's break in procedures. I've done many in between. However I have never had the opportunity to see too much of the long term effects.
Well this man makes the best argument for either side I have ever come across. I'm convinced. Drive it like its stolen.
