Another thing about mods on a newer car is even though you put money into buying them that the car was modded devalues it.

Already reading about how to break an engine in properly. Going to be hard to see what it will do until 3000 miles.....

I'd just follow the manufacture guidelines vs. whatever the dealership says. 3k doesn't sound unreasonable for a performance engine like that. You might still be able to hit the throttle and just not rev up in the higher RPMs at full out.

My Hellcat, for example, had a relatively short break-in period, which is primarily for the drive train. The engine has a dyno run before it is ever put in the car. I will have to drive 55mph all the way from Overland Park back to Iowa when I pick it up. Gonna be so hard...

Yep, thats the plan. I'll just follow whatever the manual says. If its overly cautious, so what? I'll have plenty of time to see what she can do.

Sure - but keep the stock parts and as long as you don't do too much modding to the internals of the engine, you can easily put it back to stock specs when / if you sell it. My car can go from 700+ RWHP, back to stock in a day.

So many beautiful fast cars. But lets change the scene just for a sec and talk about off-roading.
This is my baby girl. Spoiler because lots of pics.
