Default Bergenholtz breaking in his rings

Bergenholtz put in a new motor in the pits. To break in the rings, he just set it on the two step and let it pop away while he sat on top of the car. Broke every OEM rule about breaking in an engine.

Check that tiny turbo. T3?

That turbo is tiny. Looks like at least a T78...?

Thanks for the picture, its going in my archive gallery for sure
Ive heard a lot of the top name guys break their motors in this way, they are the exception to the OEM rules when it comes to breaking in an engine. He definetely could use a bigger turbo, dont you think?

i think he might be serious... thats really really funny tho

i like that as much as the guy who built a motor without those "thin metal things on the rods"

that was great. still hoping that was a joke...

No, he was using the 2-step rev limiter.

Sweet setup.

EDIT: What size slicks are those? They look like they're taller than hoodline.
