I am installing my injectors right now and I need to know what the break in process is for all of my mods. Mainly the turbo. Today I will be done with everything except some of the tranny stuff. This will be the first time it has been driven since I started installing most of the mods. I have not plugged in my Smarty yet. Should I leave the programming stock while the turbo breaks in?

All I did was a 20 mile drive and rechecked everything(leaks,etc..) and then let her loose.

Same here, I let her heat up pretty good after a preliminary check. It was pretty tight spoolin but after a few hundred miles you'll start to feel the boost build faster and faster as it loosens up. Main thing is keep an eye on your oil lines, boost line, and mounting area/ manifold gasket. It will smell a little weird for awhile.

Let us know how it goes...

Just take her easy for a few miles, re check and moderate driving for 100 or so, then bang it

Some manufacturers advise that upon startup, you want to let the engine idle w/o revving for 5-10 minutes.

Have the Shift kit and T/C in there now. About to get the Valve body, shaft, pan, and flex plate put in next week. Just got it running tonight. Could not drive it yet, no bed.

I agree with jilbert also, let the truck get warmed up to operating temperatures before letting the truck move.
