my question is... i don't have a boost controller. my settup is a t3/t4e with a custom drag kit, deltagate, 450cc injectors, fluidyne rad, vafc hack and 3" dp + exhaust all the way. new motor with low compression internals. just put about 25miles on it now, so i have awhile to break it in. is it safe to drive on long (3hr trips) to break in the motor. just keep it below 3.5rpm? and what about boost? i dont have a mbc or electronics yet? how will boost affect ? and when will boost hit?

sorry i'm still learning as i go with turbo.

Long trips (steady rpms) are not really recommended for breaking in an engine.

 

NO mbc, means it will boost up to the spring rate that's in your wastegate.

 

alright thanks, i guess i'll just wait till after labor day and just go get it tuned before i drive it anymore.
