Hi ther Gent
Did you finally got yourself an Evo2 5 ports???? Why not Break-in any engine is the same, being an expert or a novice.
Any way following is the correct procedure for Break-In a SIRIO. I know you don't have a bench, but maybe somebody at your track or local, hobby shop might have one to lend. At any rate Break-in should be done between 90°C to 100°C maximum.
BREAK-IN
After reading a post by Andrea Rossi in the Sirio's web site, this is the correct Break-In procedure for the S12's
1.- One (1) tank in the bench at WOT with very rich setting of HSN, avoiding it to go on 4 stroke.
COOL DOWN
2.- Three (3) tanks on the track with very rich setting of HSN, and tuning the HSN at the end of third tank to get almost full power.
COOL DOWN
He says after that, the engine will give more power after every new tank.
3.- For 20% Nitro, use .20 head shim and N° 7 Glow plug.
Which means that Break-In should be done with more or less 300 to 500cc of fuel.
