Well on my old setup that I just recently finished a month ago and I spun a rod bearing. From the metal in the oil it destroyed my turbo. I dont know what could of caused ths to have happen. So I pulled the motor and replace it with a completly stock motor with all of the current mods and a Ebay ball bearing 50 trim.

I got the motor reinstalled and it runs great but now I am really scared to drive it or leave it running. I dont want to mess anything up this time. So what I am asking is what do I do next? How do I break my motor in properly?
what do I do about tuning it? How do I know that I am running correct properties? Please help

thanks guys
