If the vehicle is running well (tuned):

Idle to operating temperature. Check for leaks, make sure achieves operating temp. Change oil.

10-20 vacuum pulls to get rings seated. Then do part throttle tuning, change oil.

Let her buck.

Thats what I did for the full power/street cars that wanted a tune and break-in. Never an issue, hell John's galant was making over 600awhp with a few miles on the engine.

I've also done the drive for 5k until the engine breaks in method, BORING. OEM's run them and put them in the car, if the tune is G2G, start enjoying the car.
