Well that was fun There was loads of traffic so i went down a 500metre dual carriage bit but i only managed 4300ish revs. Damn was that fun! Shame i caught up with the cars in front otherwise i could have revved it more. Definitely not regretting getting this over a BMW 120i M Sport Coupé.
Hey I gave mine the full range of revs when I felt like it from day one... modern cars don't need any running in, in fact I've heard it said it's better for the engine to give it a full range of revs to help it bed in... even if it does make a difference 100,000 miles down the road, do any of us keep them long enough to notice?
Enjoy it my friend!

Certainly enjoy yourself DYU.
Only tip would be wait till the engines warm, or it'll be a bit twitchy, and doesn't do the turbo much good. Otherwise a good old blast will do it good IMO

So i had my 155 THP for about 3 months now and its done 1550 miles. So far i haven't gone above 3500 rpms so that i can break it in a bit. It's that point in time where i think i want some fun with a smile and grin on my face. So the question is, how many revs do you guys take it to? The thing i don't want to bust or cause the engines problems by ragging it to 6000 revs.
Whoa I've had mine 6 days with 210 miles on the clock and have gone way past 3500rpm.....
Think I got 3/4 of a mile on the first dual carriage way and had to floor it
