My friend just rolled over 150k miles on his 05 rx8 6spd. Got a compression test to celebrate. Passed with ease. He has never redlined the car according to him. No premix or anything. Drives it "hard" occasionally to a maximum of 7k. I've never really believed the whole redline once a day to keep her happy thing so I didn't do it. Mine lasted to nearly 150k b4 she overheated in traffic and blew a coolant seal. Got her compression tested for giggles and passed beautifully. Lots of 8s in junkyards here I've found with over 200k. Even in automatic form! The 8s really do get a bad rep. Just some food for thought tho. I do know the theory behind the 9k carbon cleaning tho. Have done due diligence
NOT hitting redline every day
