Damn I'm such a newbie lol. I've driven a manual car before but it wasn't a sports car and this my first car with manual. So I've been lugging my engine for like 3 weeks I hope I didn't screw things up too bad.[/QUOTE]

Mike; I went and looked at your original posts and hopefully without starting a war I noticed you are aware of the IMS. There is lots of informative reading on this subject in here when you have time and popcorn. Jake Raby is a very knowledgeable resource. I hope he doesn't mind my referencing him but he has stated that the IMS has the most loading at low RPM. IMHO This is why there is a theory that engines that have been driven hard have less IMS failure than a garage queen, Lugged around engine. Hence the statement Drive it like you stole it! These cars love to rev! Their pedigree is racing. Get out and enjoy the way it was meant to be driven!
