Default 30,000 and still good.

I have just clocked my 30,000th (trouble free) mile since RCM built it.

Not bad when considering the following:-

Power produced (Bhp per Cylinder)

Example: Audi R8 4.2 develops 51.7 Bhp per Cylinder

51.7 Audi R8 4.2 Quattro
37.5 Aston Martin Volante
59.7 Ferrari F40
51.7 M3 Alpine
48.3 Lambo Murcielago VT
69.5 Standard Impreza P1
70.3 Mercedes SLS (AMG)
82.1 Porsche 911 Turbo
125.6 2010 Formula One (average)
140.7 My P1



My P1 Project thread on SN included a few comments from guys regarding the costs throughout the P1 build, and that it was money being thrown into the wind.

Other than one "component failure" (Map Sensor) the P1 has not missed a beat. I am not saying the P1 will never break as that would be stupid when running 38 Bhp short of 600.
I can now say to the same guys with the clever comments, you don't sound so fookin clever now, do you.

No dollar wasted here
