Must I run-in/break-in my new cams before tune?

I'm going to install my new BC cams in 2wks time so I was planning to tune my car right after they're installed on the same day. Do I need to run-in/break-in the new cams before I can tune them? Any advice is highly appreciated. Thank you

Not necessary. I had my cams installed and tuned on the same day.

Sawadee...make sure you get injectors before you tune your car.

An I agree with everyone else...the answer is no
