Better to break it in under warranty.
OK I'll tell the truth.
FULL THROTTLE IN REVERSE FOR THE FIRST 20 HOURS!!!!!!!
Read the owners manual. That is what I did, But then again I did have it at WOT after the first 1 hour. Only had the stock stereo in it at that time......

Anytime I brake in a motor I put it through a heat cycle for 20gls of fuel. Depending on where your max rpms are I would run up and down the rpms but never over 4000rpm, do this for a 10-20 minute cruise then let the motor cool to COLD, repeat untill you have 20gls through the motor and then go WOT ;) But then again what do I know Im no motor head:D
