Sooner the better for oil change. You can never change it too much, remember that.

As soon as I got some cash for modding is when I started to hook my girl up. I got new shoes now I'm waiting on some soles so I can take her running.......

Mine had 150 unknown miles on Speedo when purchased. Never babied it, just drove it like I wanted, first autocross @ 200 miles. Made 300/ 300 on Mustang Dyno on first tune at 500 miles with no mods. At 2000 Miles added the High flow cat, AMS DP, Boosy Pill, and Magnaflow catback made 330 / 325 on the same dyno. Now sitting at 10,000 miles and still runs like a scalded cat. No signs of oil consumption, or blow by.

I went about 600 miles taking it easy and breaking it in. Then I did an oil change right after and loaded an AP map around 1000.
