Breaking in motor with a turbo kit.
Its getting time to get my fresh motor in my car(84mm ls-vtec). I was wondering if it would be ok to install the turbo kit along with the new motor. The car will be started up by my tuner and partially street tunned for a/f then off to the dyno.
Does anyone have info/details for dyno break-in? How many miles? What kind of dyno?
Thanks.

the few engines i've built, different break in's dont seem to have changed their end result/lifespan.
my next engine (hopefully fully built, sleeved, etc) will be broken in, driven around to get a partial throttle tune, and slowly work my way up to the way i'll drive it at its peak, all in the same session. break it in like its going to live, IMO. obviously you need to make sure everything is OK and healthy first.

Re: (redzcstandardhatch)
I agree with redzcstandardhatch, it's known that the rings seat quite quickly, but definently make sure everything is going well with the motor before you start going nuts.
I plan on just starting it up, checking for leaks, draining oil, refilling and off to the dyno
