Just realize something, I have no way of breaking in the new trans or clutch before I get the car tuned with the turbo kit. What should I do?

Just sit in it and make race car noises that should work:bigthumb

I know a lot of manufacturers give u a break in period but how many racers do u know that will drive their race cars on the street for 500 miles before they race them

I used to put my new race clutches and trans in my street car and break them in for a couple hundred miles before putting them in the race car. It was a hassle but it did help the clutches live longer .

So should I just pop it in get it tuned and stay out of boost for awhile? Or by the time it's tuned it's pointless ??

I would just talk with your tuner on this situation,you will get a different answer from everyone.
