so for pro break in, whats that mean? they stick you on a dyno to run it through variable speeds and check and re check everything before giving it back to you?

Here is the AMS announcement on the R&R.

Ohh, i see i see. well i guess it makes sense so they can let everything settle in, and adjust as it will with new things, then make sure its all back to proper specs. but wow thats a lot of miles. haha. i wonder how much time that would cut on them having the car.

Just talked to AMS. I did not get all the details when I posted that. Basically I am not getting the Pro break in.

Basic Tune
After the first 10 miles they do an oil change.
Drive car at varied engine speeds and try not to stay steady on any RPM.
Then again at 500 and they do the Dyno and tune.
Then another oil change at 1500 miles.

I woulda been able to get my car back sometime between the 500 and 1500 miles.

That is the process. I am gonna get the car and go back for the Dyno and Tune at 500 miles.
