My short block and ECU are being replaced under warranty. Should I be going easy on it per the manual? Does that only apply to new cars presumably broken in from the factory and not my brand new short block? Or should I abuse it to"teach" the ECU to run more aggressive trims during that critical <100 mile period when it will permanently save driving habit information with it's "handshake" with the engine? I'll be tuning on e85/flex fuel after I'm confident the dealership didn't fuck anything up
