Which 1k is a ridiculous amount of miles, modern vehicles are "broken in" before you get through the first tank of fuel.
im a firm believer in breaking it in like you typically drive it.

ive also tuned every car ive ever bought new within the 1st 2 weeks of owning them.

If you need to baby the car so it doesnt break, its not a good car. With todays technology in cars, and the amount of safeties in place in them, there shouldnt be much of a concern of breaking in an engine.
