Thats ok, once I figure out if I need a new maf sensor I'll order it along with new plugs from the dealership.

What are your plans for engine break-in?
Drive the fukin thing! Carefully, check for leaks, do vacuum pulls, etc. The car is prolly 90% tuned b/c I haven't changed much with the fueling or intake system; only real differences tune-wise are the ported head, bigger valves, and bigger cams. The existing tune should be fine for break-in, but I'll prolly pull timing a bit and add a tish of fuel to be safe.

500 miles on o'reily 10w30 mixed with walmart supertech 10w30 conventional. Oil change at 500, prolly stick with the leftover supertech or maybe rotella triple protection, maybe a 5w40 if I can find it. Then at 1500 miles I'll change to a synthetic and get tuned.
