Don't rev the engine over 2500 rpms until it comes up to normal operationg temperature (needle mid-guage for my car)

Don't run less than 92 octane under any circumstances.

Do change the oil every 3k miles.

Do read the SC agreement on Stillen's or Vortech website so that you know what you've gotten into.

Do run 1 heat range cooler spark plugs every 20k miles. Like these: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.phtml?threadid=8105

Do keep in mind that the V1 unit is designed to last 100,000 miles (and can be rebuilt at that point for approximately $500).

Er, that's all I can think of right now. Anyone have anything to add?

Jim
