Congrats and welcome to the .org. BTW excellent choice in color

Since you have an auto, do a search for "Dons VB mod" and "Frankencar intake" and you'll have info on the 2 best mods for the $$.

Doesn't Dons VB Mod cause the shifts to be more jerky? (i drive people around alot thus I want smooth)... I wish there was a way to flip a switch and have it change between the two

too bad.

how long should i break in the car, and what should i not go past?

It's recommended you don't go over 3000rpm for the first 1000 miles i believe.

Congratulations on your new ride--- the wait is finally over!
I just picked mine up tonight!
It's an HLSD 6spd, tungsten blue exterior, frost interior, loaded with everything but the
guards and NAV. It had about 45 miles on it, and its date of manufacture was 1/02. The engine is so quiet and power delivery is very smooth. The clutch feels a bit light (I'm used to a heavier clutch), and I had a difficult time trying to "feel" the engine because of that on the way home from the dealership. I'm already adjusting to it! Though the wait has been a long one, it was well worth it!
