Turbo Break-in??

Does anyone know if there is a recommended break in period for a new turbo kit. Just got on from a-spec and will be installed soon. Only problem is after installation it will most likely get towed to san jose for steve kan to tune. Basically I won't have time to drive it around considering the deadline I have to make, are there dramatic consequences in running the turbo hard without breaking it in first. Thanks for the help.

No break-in. I wouldn't recommend running a new turbo on a fresh engine however, too much debris in the oiling system. Just make sure you have oil pressure and no leaks, then let her rip.
