I am doing a good slow break in. I have had my FR-S 2 weeks and it has 344 miles on it.

I hate all of you! Just kidding... I seriously hope that my dealer gets my car by the official launch date of June 1st. I'm second in line, but I've got to believe that at least two are arriving at the same time.

I dare to beat anyone in breaking in the slowest, have some self control guys

1800 miles today, and still as solid as the day I got it 3 weeks ago.
Engine oil changed to rid of the factory break-in agent, and car gained a but of torque as tested on RS*R's dynamometer 2 days ago. Peak power stayed pretty much the same as before, but midrange torque at 3800~5200 increased significantly by about 5lbs/ft in most area, and hp in this range is up about 3hp.

Added RS*R RAN UP and tested it again, which also gave another 6lbs/ft, and minor bit of HP at midrange, with peak power still remaining similar.

So if I'm reading this correctly, you are up +11 ft/lbs and +3 bhp from an oil change and RAN UP? Dyno sheets please?
