How many miles on your car when you decided to install forced induction kit?
For those of you who installed turbo/supercharger, how many miles did you put on you car when you decided to install a forced induction kit? were you worried about voiding warranty? how many miles should one put on the car before feeling safe that there is not issue with the car?

Installed my Innovate at ~10-11k miles. Wasn't really worried about the warranty being voided after seeing how Subaru handled warranty claims on these cars thus far.

Ordered my turbo kit and supporting parts with 800 miles on the car. I'm at 2200 miles and looking forward to installing everything in the next couple weeks when it all arrives.

Love it! I had my FBM turbo kit at home before I got the car. Kit went on right after the 1000 mile break-in period.

Before going FI, especially if one has never driven a manual before, should I get used to the car? Or just dive on in and get used to it with FI? (I'm assuming the former.)
