"Stable" Meaning that its not still gaining power every pull you make because its not finished breaking in "Baselined" Means that every pull you make is the same or with in about 1-2% If you can make three pulls on the dyno while maintaining stable temps between pulls and those pulls are within 1-%2% of each other I think you could say that the engine is stable and the tests will be valid. If this is indeed the case your engine is already broke in.

As far as changing oils during break in. Not necessary! Just use the oil that's in there. I didn't even change the oil out when I broke mine in. I thought about it but never wanted to go through the hassle. It just takes a little longer with the Mobil1 to get things to come around that's all.

This is the reason you dont use an engine that you know for sure is still gaining power. The results are skewed. You CAI that's worth a whopping 12hp could actually be worth only 4hp! This is why you BASELINE! No one can argue with a three or four pull baseline that's total variance is 2-4hp. ALL professional dyno testing is done a certain way. First have the engine baselined so the power band is not fluctuating. Then do three pulls and average those into a BASE pull. Change what ever component you wish to test. Make three more pulls with the new component and average those pulls into a single one. Then put the original component back on the engine and do three more pulls and average those. If there is a statistical variance from the first BASE to the last base the data is thrown out. If the first and last BASE are the same or within exceptable limes then then you can quantify your results for the component that was changed. A-B-A testing. Oh yea, the oil temps, water temps, head temps air temps can not fluctuate either. Not even a little bit. 10 degrees of oil temp can be an easy 2hp increase in power. Drop engine coolant temp by 10 degrees and that's 4hp more you just made. Now think what happens when your testing a CAI, your oil temp just shot up by 10F and you water temp dropped 10F. Your engine just jumped up by 6hp and the CAI your testing just showed a 16hp increase. No, it made 10hp not 16hp. Dyno testing is a very scientific proceadure whos underlying variables are often overlooked or worse yet, totaly dimised.

Darin,
Question on after you put the car into neutral.. i know you want us to let the car slow its self down.. but my space is limited on where i can break the car in.. so is it ok to hit the brakes a little bit when the car is in neutral.. reason y im asking is becuz ill be going on and off the highway and if a car is in front of me and i need to slow down faster than its slowing down so i dnt hit the car, is that ok..?? Thanks for your Help...

I have Mahle Nikasil cylinders in this and we take them right off the dyno after rebuild and race them cranked up to 18 lbs of boost . These cars were competative in IMSA for close to ten years in the late 70's to mid 80's and the oils were not as good as they are now and they lived and ran hard out of the box. So I always believed in breaking them like you have done .... |

Hey Darin,
Is it true that the most critical break-in period is the first 0-20 miles placed on the vehicle? If this is true, it seems I will do this just trying to warm her up when I pick her up from the dealer. Thanks for all your help. |

thanks Dr.Morgan, you helped me a lot.
i have a small question . I've understood that i should not hit the pedal from 0mph , so what is the perfect speed to hit the pedal to the metal until i reach 90mph?. thanks again, |

I was saying you dont have to hit it from a standing start. That doesn't mean you cant. If you want to spin the tires a little and have some fun then go for it. Some guys dont want to. If you dont want to burn some tread then just start from a 2-5mph roll.

Darin,
Just wanted to get your opinion, if i had to guess i would say i have about 30 hard pulls on it with about 730 miles i have definitely noticed a differnece in the power but you say it will not reach its full potential till about 1500 miles? Also i still notice that the engine bogs down a lil bit from about 10mph roll is this still normal? When do you recomend that i should change the oil and what type? Thanks for your help! |
