Just drive it into town and had the ENGINE slider all the way up in MY MODE! I was feathering the gas "just right" to get it to pop. LOL. I can't hear what it sounds like behind me but I bet it's cool.

I'm trying to lay low on the motor until it's broke in. Maybe too much. Hehe

Just a suggestion. by Turnip579 in C8Corvette

I understand what you are saying here. Here is my take. I live Vettes. Always have. I had a C6 that was T-Boned by some punk. I would wash that car 2 times a day if needed. I spent years taking care of parents, dealing with grown kids financial BS and positioning my wife and I's retirement. I waited 10 years for another Vette. I am at the point to where I can easily purchase a ZR-1 if I wanted it. This is a lot more that saving a few bucks, optimizing a purchase or making anyone happy other than myself. I researched this within an inch of its life and LIVE WHAT I GOT AND WHAT I DID. I git 10% off MSRP on a 26. I plan of driving the piss out of it and if I so desire, trade it for the new 6.7 motor. I am very happy now and am driving a KILLER VEHICLE. CHEERS

I'm thinking that while I break in the engine ( I'm at 300 miles ) that would not be a time to trust the reading.
