Question Finally getting on it..

So im at 1100 miles.. and today leaving work was the first time I have really ripped on it.. (Been babying it no past 4000 or really 80 mph) Full throttle on to the highway past 5500 RPMs and hitting well over 100 in no time, ever since I have been beating on it a little I cant seem to stop lol..

Is this to early to be really getting on it and having some fun or can I go all out from here on out?

Anything I should keep in mind over the next 1000 miles or so? Was thinking diff fluid at 1500-1800. And I changed oil at 500.

Let er rip tater chip. . Don't worry, these cars are not fragile. They are built for the track.

You can change the diff fluid if you like. You will see E-Diff sludge from the clutch material on the drain plug when you change it but it will keep coming back. Some change it yearly just but I am not aware of published required change interval.

Don't worry, enjoy the car, it's broken in now. I had the diff fluid changed at 1500 miles just for peace of mind, the fluid that came out wasn't super nasty.

I did oil and diff changes at 505 & 1,500 & oil again at 4,000 miles and oil & diff at 5,975 miles, but I was being over cautious... Let 'er rip, she is broken in...

I agree. After the first 500 miles of break in you should be fine to get on it.
