Just for the record, turbochargers do not require any break-in like an engine would. Once the turbo is installed and the engine is started, a 10-minute idling period to verify that the oil lines are not leaking is plenty.
If the turbo is getting oil, it's ready to perform.
This is true, however i always wait about 50 - 100 miles or so before slamming up the boost on a turbo thats brand new. Thats just me though.
