Almost every time I drive it I take it up to at least 6k rpms. I also let it cool down for a minute or two every time I shut it off. I also change the oil at 3k miles and rotate the tires every time. I beat it and treat it good.

i daily drive mine about 40 miles a day into NYC and back. for the most part i take it easy. a few sections of roadway , on and off ramps to the nj turnpike to link some nice turns here and there. maybe a few highway pulls to 100+ nothing too crazy. it's near stock (intake, test-pipe, hotchkis springs), i understand it's not a superfast car and know where it stands...

when i still had mine i beat the living crying sh*t out of it every time i'm behind the wheels. but i was never abusive. i have never launched my car even once, and i have never pulled the e-brake or attempt AWD doughnuts.

I'll floor it to 5k-ish in the first few gears when the road is clear. Don't really feel like redlining because it makes too much noise and the stock turbo dies off a bit. Never launch it.
