umm didn't read all (got bored), he did say 4 stroke engines? Seems like BS to me too. So I can floor it on my new 350Z as long as its properly warmed up, is that what the article is telling me?

Apparently, then change the oil right away (like after only 20 miles - i can see the lube shop thinking i'm a lunatic), using high grade oil for the first 1500 miles.
