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.
Nice thanks for the info guys! The guy who will be working on the car mentions first oil change. That way they can do those samples and by then she should be good to go. Also doing some down shift/engine braking instead of using the brakes. Nothing ferocious just giving her a little pressure here and there. Heard stay off the freeways as much as you can at first to keep shifting through those gears so nice to hear a lot of the same that you just advised.

Damnitt next oil change seems like a long time! Whatever, more exuse to drive her around everywhere instead of sitting in the garage
