Default Clutch Break-In Advice

I just picked up an ACT Street Disk And an Extreme Pressure plate ( know its going to be rough as my daily driver =D )
I know its supposed to be 500 miles but what do you guys recommend out there. I trust my people on this Forum over anyone else so any response would be nice.

Just baby for a week or two. By that I mean take a little longer time engaging it in first than you normally would.

I just got my exedy today and I know from the past , go easy for 250 and you will be fine Just don't abuse it on the 251 mile...
Change your speeds when on the hiwy, never keep the pedal down for long periods of time and no extra tq like nos or 15lbs of turbo if ya can help it, also vari the throtle and try to keep weight down to a min.

Once your at 300 and you don't feel anything strange then pick up the pace and see what the situation is and then build up speed and power as the miles add on...

Have fun!
