If its not set up with a proper tune first, you will break it while breaking it in.

If you still have the stock setup and a stock ecu then your fine. If you got a larger bore and deeper stroke like or anything then if you should get it towed to your tuner shop. The motor will start the "break in" as it gets tuned.

Yes, if you have a know good ecu tuned for your basic set up, you should be ok.

Just keep it out of boost until it's on the dyno.

Or you can take it to the tuner and have them break it in on the dyno.

Where is nanuet NY ? There's a good tuner just west of Albany.
