It has me worried now since the plan was to add a turbo right around now since my warranty is just about up.

Is the powertrain 60,000 miles? Are you above that?
My 5th gear synchro went out stock and I had it replaced. No issues afterward. Have you tried a tranny flush? Some guys on here report improved performance after it is changed.

The powertrain warranty is 60,000. I'm at 51,5xx now. The new transmission feels ok so far. I talked to a few local guys locally have gone through a few and it has me worried about my next 40,000...Oh well, i guess we shall see.

How long do you guys wait for the engine to warm up before driving hard? Do you even monitor the oil temps?

I wait until the oil is at 100F before driving (Idle in driveway until that temp), use torque on a Nexus with OBDII dongle to monitor. I don't drive the car hard until the oil hits 175F. Change oil every 3.5K.

Boosted with AVO for last two years (20K). No issues whatsoever. 320HP at the crank out of a 2 liter. Huh!
Runs like a top.

At the crank? You did an engine dyno?

No. I have 274 at the wheels, just an estimate.

Thanks, I was just wondering because I was the guy who would just let it idle for around 5 minutes then drive it hard. I didn't start regulating oil temps till this year! I hope I didn't cause any internal damage

Gotcha. I was like "Why would anyone cite a crank number if they have a wheels number... unless they dyno'd the engine"
