This was my gut reaction to seeing your report as well. I don't have anything scientific to back that up...just my humble opinion.ibanix said:Change it at 5k; I don't think you'll see a huge increase in the next 1100 miles.
But if you do change out "early" at 5k, I'd change out again at 10k to get out any remaining copper, etc and then follow the regular OCI.
There's evidence both ways..(to leave it until 10k to complete break-in). I'd tend to side with the labs opinion.
