I'am lost, so when a car is tunable, it's ok it's ugly? Just like a man who is rich, doesn't need a six pack to impress?

And when you don't believe that, there can't be anything wrong doing that. On the other hand, redlining it from the first ride can certainly be an issue when the gentle break-in theory is really true. Also the manufacturers (all!) provide instructions on it, so why ignore them? They're all on drugs? |

It's just like you state, that there are so many people building opinions about it, while we just need some discipline the first few hundred miles driving it. But apparently, this is already too much for some that justify their lack of discipline with some unfounded speculations and need to indulge their crave for max. adrenaline from the first minute with a new car. |

Both the Ostrich and Cheetah are exceptionally fast animals, but only one is really admired for its sleek appearance. The other one is just a quick, ugly bird. |

I always get a kick out of these break in threads. I work in an engine test lab. We unpack brand new engines from crates, put them in a dyno cell, and run the break in cycle provided by the people that make the damn engine. Within 30 minutes of operation they run at 100% throttle and near maximum speed. The faster they break in the faster we can perform the calibration or engine test. Never a problem...
The cycle varies the speed and load to help with the consistency of the break in. But a part of the cycle is WOT! |

Is this chasis able to handle 670 WHP?
If the stock car is 503 HP which is around 450 WHP, then this tune is 50% over stock! Not sure from engineering stand point if this is a safe tune unless you just want to drive this car for drag race

If the F8X can handle it, so can the G8X.

Take 4.5% off to get to SAE and a further 1% off to get to DIN and you're still probably more like crank hp numbers. Here's a little diagram to help you, dynojet STD horse on the left, real horse on the right: Not knocking the tuner by the way, looks a strong upgrade. |

Don't see any merit to the argument at all. Crate engine in a lab following an automated accelerated break-in to reduce the time spend during this procedure, versus an idiot thrashing his new car as from the first ride without any controlled condition at all. What is the expected benefit from the latter?

Just that cheetah is 50% faster than the ostrich, like G82 M4 vs Yaris GR; I'll take the M4 any day in this case

I only watched the video once but I think it's:
E85 - 522hp Pump-gas (bone stock) - 466hp E85 w/ Port injection - 661hp E85, port injection, + JB4 - 679hp OP would know for certain though.
