curious to know how many miles do you have on your car before putting on the dyno?

I've got 3k miles right now. I'd wait at least 1500 miles to get an accurate reading of your power.

no i've stil got "60%" oil life on my original break-in oil. You need to leave the break-in oil in as long as possible (until 15% oil life remains is recommended).

I dirve my Si hard maybe a handful of times per week, not alot at all.

I hate reading stuff like that (=

Cant wait to toss the dinosaur juice and get some 'real' oil (and yes I realize the irony of calling synthetic 'real' )

I talked to the Service people at my Dealer, about that oil.

They said, that what whoever said about the breakin oil isnt true. Its just regular Honda Oil, no special oil at all.

If you open up your owners manual....it talks about the break-in oil.
