motoman break in and dyno after

i was wondering if anyone has broken their evo in with the motoman "hard or Dyno" method break in. if so, did you ever get your car dyno'd after. i am planning to trailer my car to speed element to have it broken in on the dyno. is this a waste or should i just run it hard. it is also being trailered to get the clear bra applied. trying to kill two birds with one. thanks for your help. also is the oil in a new evo synthetic or petroleum. im also considering the break in with the petroleum oil.

Just run it hard to 5500 and you'll be fine, no need to trailer it.

The factory fill is Mobil 1.

Alot of people change their motor oil after breaking the engine in. I personally wouldnt ever run dino oil in my car. The mfr recommends Mobil 1 and in case people forget they wrote it in the manual and even remind you on the oil cap.

I broke mine in with the Motoman way. There is a street method he uses too. As far as dyno #'s go I'm not sure but a friend of mine has the whiterabbit, cams, and an AEM Ems. On the highway topend we are even steven. Take it for what its worth. Just make sure the car is warmed up first.
