At 1400 miles with the fluid changing color I don't think this CSC will make 60k or 20k for that matter. I just have to decide it I want to use the factory warrantee for the first failure or head it...

Certainly if there was an unlimited amount of upgrade cash we would all have Trophy's or heck a GTR! But I guess those of us without such resources, we stay in the stands with this car.:bowrofl:

Running any temps lower than 200-210 wont burn off the moisture that is in the oil from sitting. So running lower than that may give more power but is it good for the engine?

Carbs are your enemy! Not just sugars but also breads and pasta. Use coconut milk instead of dairy. It has more calcium and the good fats your body needs. Exercise! But you know that one.
