good, i used that for 1000 miles, changes at 500 miles intervals, then went on to motul 300v fully synthetic. didn't use any boost for 500 miles, then slowly crept up 0.5 bar, max i used at 1000 miles was 0.8 bar, then at 1500 miles put motul in, went to see jgm for mapping and he gave it beans now im 1.4 bar boost. done 3000 miles with no issues.

just relax and drive the car normal during running in. just not driving hard. try not to

i also only drove to 3k revs till 500 miles, then 4k too 800 miles and at 1000 miles i was using 6k revs. but slow acceleration. not to boost hard
