If yes, don't push hard the pedal for 1-2k miles and it is enough!

Just let loose as soon as!! well i normally allow 200 miles to let things run there cause, brakes bedding in etc after that! just go for it... just keep an eye on the oil level..
Ill let everyone know how it handles up over the next year or so, not having followed the break in procedures at all! I'm currently at 500 miles, and am having the engine remapped by DMS on Tuesday !
