Thanks :-( Crystal Cove will eat up a few. How bad is it? Under 6k or what?

4200 rpm. Although that lasted about 150 miles for me . Then I was up to 5500 and then 6000 after 400miles. Nobody's perfect.

LOL, I hear ya. I just know Ferrari warrants their cars even when the failures occur on the track whereas Porsche tries to weasel out of street caused failures. So, I don't want to give them any outs via pulling up on the computer how the car was broken in. After break in though, all hell is going to break loose!

BTW, redline on the CGT is darn near 1500 higher than the 996 yet 4200 is the required 996 break in max????
