How many miles to break new rings in before I start to really boost it? Thanks

Once youv'e verified NO leaks of any kind and broke the cam in if it's a flat tappet cam and the tune is good you need to get in and out of boost to seat the rings. Take it up to 10 to 15 lb. of boost for just afew seconds and let off. That will seat your rings.

Ok, ya no leaks so far, we ran it last night and everything seems to be in order. Still has the stock flat tappet cam and I will get it tuned in again. Thanks for info guys. Just have the down pipe on with no other exhaust and the turbo sounds awesome .
