Head Gasket break-in
How long do I have to wait before I can Lay into the throttle again with the new HG? I've done two retorques already and have about 125 miles on it. I want to make sure everything is seated because as much fun as it was to replace it, I don't want to do it again...

I powered into it after the first re-torque. I also installed a different boost control and keep it down to 35 psi.
