Here's a tip: Don't do any high-speed runs to see what it will top out at.

The scoop isn't very efficient at high speed, your charge temperatures will soar, leading to knocking. Also, the oil temperature will increase. Together, the combined effect is to put more stress on the big end bearings, which can fail shortly after chasing the top speed. Several recent threads have been about big-end failures.
