There's zero use installing it before break in, because you're trying to stay under 5,500 RPM and 106MPH. You don't need a JB4 to do that. Also, be advised, that the JB4 isnt exactly like adding a roof rack to your car. The dealership is not a JB4 fan.

I'd wait 200 miles before tuning at least to ensure nothing is wrong from the factory.

If I go 107 will the car explode? Lol I can't wrap my head around this strict break in.

Install it after break-in, it works.

I'm just relaying the parameters that were suggested. Nobody told me about the speed part. I was pretty easy on it until about 700 miles.

And then I had my break in, and I live about 45 minutes from the dealer, in Mexico, and there's a nice stretch of road on the way home, and she jumped to 167, fairly easily. I had to be sure they'd given me the M Drivers Package. :

Install it after your break it service. Take a road trip. It will go by fast. I went in right around 1200 miles.

Can you do the break in service earlier than 1200?

I've read some people doing it around 8-900 miles but they don't want you really doing it much earlier than that. It's for the overall health of the vehicle so it's just best to wait until you get to around that mileage.

They replace the rear diff oil as well as engine oil to get rid of any contaminants produced during the manufacturing process...oil shavings..etc. After that first documented service at the dealership it's whatever you want to do.

You can ask; they might get you in a couple of hundred miles before the 1200 mark

My dealer told me i had to do the break in service between 1180-1200 miles or the warranty is voided. Is that a load of shit?

Literally a 20 miles window. Sounds ridiculous

BS as most of the time the dealership is busy and won't get you in on time.

You are supposed to use Uber until an appointment opens for you?
