There isn't really a break in. Just drive it carefully first to make sure the install was correct. No loose hoses, etc.

After a few hundred miles, you'll notice that the turbo will spool a little quicker and be a little louder.

In my instructions, it says for a break-in of 300-500km. Not sure on you.

Yeah, just take it easy the first couple of days and make sure everything's working properly. Definately make sure your getting oil to the turbo.
