Not Porsche-specific, but I followed the break-in procedure in the link below:
Break In Secrets--How To Break In New Motorcycle and Car Engines For More Power
It felt scary to push a newly rebuilt motor but it makes sense to load piston ring against cyl wall under vacuum. I rebuilt 2003 SAAB 2.3 turbo motor and broke it in this way, it is running strong with over 80K miles since.
I'm curious, how much cost for a full 2.5 rebuild?
