Is there really a break in period on these things? As in should I keep it under a certain rpm for a certain amount of miles and ease her in? I REALLY want to get on her a bit day 1 just out of pure excitement but can hold back if I need to!
Second, how long do people wait before putting FI on the Z and void out the warranty? I wanted to give that cushion to make sure there are no manufacturer defects of course that I typically would be able to bring her right in to get fixed. Whereas the second that turbo hits the motor that's not longer an option. I had a 2009 GTM TT and want to go AAM sooner rather than later! Thanks guys! Can't wait to be a part of the family again!

Owners manual states keep rpms below 4000 for 1,200 miles.
Don't use cruise control during that time period and make sure you vary gears if on extended trips at the same speed. Also no hard braking for the first 200 miles.
As for FI. I would wait until the motor is properly broken in and wear metals start to drop off in your oil sample. Send all your oil changes to Black Stone and when they report the motor is at normal wear metals add boost.
