Welcome....

First off RTFM...all the info you are looking for is in there.
If after that you are unsure, then you can search the site for "engine break-in" and "oil change" and I'm sure you will find something.

Cheers.

wow i think you should have picked the right place to post this.......after all this is the "nitrous injection" threads.

But hey its all good i guess since you are new.
I did my first change at 500M. and then drove it a lil hard and changed it at 1500. after that its all you. i change my oil frequently since i car of the longevity of the engine. but hey good luck and like nofear said...............

SEARCH FIRST ALWAYS AND POST IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

you can't change the oil too often. Once at 500 to 1000 miles is a good idea. For breakin, vary the revs without going over say 5000 max for the first 1000 miles. Do not put most of the miles on the interstate with the cruise set.
