All engines where I used this worked trouble free for years. Couple of others I used manuals and those did not do to well.
0-320 Miles Keep revs under 3500 RPM and do not use more then 1/2 boost (1/2 orange) up to 75Mph is ok
321-500 Miles Keep revs under 4000 RPM and do not use more the 3/4 boost
501-560 Miles Keep revs under 4500 RPM and use full boost once in a while
for a short period
561-940 Miles Keep revs under 5000 RPM and use full boost more often
940-1850 Miles Drive normally but avoid long period of full boost or
revs close to the redline
1851 Miles OIL CHANGE put in some FULL SYNTH 0w40,5w40 or 5w50 if you
live in a hot plave ie. S.CAL
1852 Miles Drive as you like, engine should be ok now
Also!!!
While it only takes 10 Min to reach normal Water Temp. You engine
oil will only be there after 25 Minutes. Same for gearbox oil. Thus
Don't race around with a cold gearbox. If you follow this your gearbox
and engine will last longer. Don't ever push in the gears, if a gear is
not cooperative, back to N and rev engine a tad, try again. In some
cases while the gearbox is cold, you will notice that 3rd is not very
easy to shit in at low RPMS, in such a case, N, clutch up and down
and try again.
Enjoy your Aero :)

Coolknight drives a 2000 9-5 Aero 5spd
