Re: (booscivic)
I just fully rebuilt my engine and new clutch and such and I waited 700 miles before I hit vtec and during the whole break in period would not get over 4K rpms... Then on 700 miles I changed the oil and put 10w 40 in and new oil filter and drive her normal now =D

most of the engine break in happens withing the first 100 miles
after that if done correctly there shouldnt be any problems
change it and it shall be fine.....
remember synthetic oil leaks from wherre normal oil doesnt
