Because if they drove it there is a chance that they'd have to rehone the cylinder walls when the put new rod/pistons in. This way they can pull the motor, strip out the old stuff, swap in the new stuff and only have to file the rings. Saves them some money in the long run.

Yeah, but that doesn't answer my question.

I was wondering if the dealer test fired it, or they break 'em in from the factory. A lot of places do this.

Most cars have atleast a few miles on them... you never see something with 0 miles on it

Exactly, which is why I was wondering how much more damage 7 miles would do.

[Steve-o]

the car has 5 miles on it. I think 4 are from the test track that subaru uses after the car is assembled.

oh and driving it @ 4k rpm is harder on the motor than idling it off a trailer.

How so?

And who says you have to drive it at 4K?

[Steve-o]

because when you are driving you are putting load on the motor. Plus if Shane drove it he would just keep driving it and we would never get to work on it.

that and it will make some sweet before and after pics.

[94NDTA]

ok

[STiSchucky]

i bet he's itching to drive it now. sti's are fun.

[slowvo]

screw that, 4k doing damage to a new motor?? my ass..

i beat the hell out of cars to 7k w/ 2-8 miles on them quite regularly
subaru's engines = junk?
