Big old 3.2 V6 can handle it, plus I've seen the RR results of a few MKIVs that were booted from day one and they were pushing out better figures than those of us who stuck to the 'break in' rules. Probably sensible to give it at least 400-500 miles to make sure all the bits are working and have settled in tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Uh huh. That's what I'm doing with the new engine in mine at the moment. I have to say, it's very tough though - I haven't seen more than 3.5k for the last week, and I'm just on 400 miles. Mind you - there is still plenty of go available for overtaking and country road blasts etc, the only problem is that 3k rpm in 6th gear is only 80 ish mph, so there are some knock on benefits to my license Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
