I bet thats tough, notbeing able to give it some welly when you first get it.
When I bought my first car, my Mark 2 Driver, the fella who was selling it bought it as a run around until his Subaru came. It was the proper STI Pro-drive thingy and when he was running it in he wasnt allowed to take it past 4000rpm, and had an electronic limiter set by the dealer so that he couldnt take it above even if we wanted to.
