Actually, there is no such thing as a "turbo break in period". The only thing you really need to do is prime the turbo before the initial startup. After that, you're good to go. Boost away!

What exactly do you mean friend when you say "prime it before the initial startup"?

Priming a turbo is done in order to lubricate the turbo's bearings before the initial startup. It consists of disabling the fuel & spark and then cranking the engine over a couple times to let oil pressure get to the turbo.

See my old thread for the procedure... How to Prime a Turbo
