i always used to run them very gentle for a few hundred miles then build the revs up progessivly until it reaches about 1k miles then get it set up by a pro.

run it on mineral oil for the running in period, i normally change at 100 miles, then again at 500, prob overkill but just what i do.

run a turbo pre filter while your running in, you can leave this on after but you dont have to i dont personally run one.

boost totally depends on what your fuellings like, somewhere between 16-22 psi more than likely, you will need to get this set up
