Default Motor break in question

So I just got my car tuned on 17psi, but then i cracked a sleeve (gsr stock sleeves bored .5 over) and I'm in t he process of getting her sleeved and whatnot. but I got to know, can I just leave my tune on, and pop a stock exhaust mani on to break her in? i dont have stock injectors on me, I have 880s installed. I'm just seeing if there is a way to break it in without actually going to stock for a break in

if there is not GOOD way of doing it, i guess I'll find myself some injectors

but I would like to break it in with boost if I can so I dont have to annoy myself. Thanks

Put it on the dyno right away and start tuning with boost, no reason not to.

How is that not a legit answer?? That is exactly how you should break in a new motor, tune it from first startup.

OP's way just sounded bunk.
