Modifying exhaust during break in.
Is it a bad idea to modify the exhaust before the break in period is over. I wanted to replace my secondary cats with the powerpipe and maybe get an aftermarket cat-back system. Should I wait?

A lot of people take the "break in" period too seriously. I drove mine off the lot like i stole it and i've had less problems with my car than four of my friends with 09's c63's. Been a champ since 1 mile.

Break-in?? seriously? lol... just drive the car... and if any problem... well you have a warranty! In my country, when my dad gets a new car they're never broken in... and they rarely had to visit the dealer... all benzes.

Who follows AMG's most conservative approach? Not me- have had a lot of AMG's and I push them hard right out of the factory. Run the engine up and down the rpm cycle, not too long in one range if possible, and stretch the seals out. The engines are already pre broke in anyways. I dont know how anyone could be a vagina for the first 2k miles LOL.
