Break in

Is it necessary? How many km we have to avoid: more than 4500rpm / 140km/h , kick down, full throttle, engine braking.
Does the engine has been dynoed before it's installed in the chassis, also the car has been tested on track?
Is the break in important for engine, or others: trans, tyres, brakes?
I read before that we have to drive the car hard in the first 100 km for proper bedded piston ring in the cylinder.

you will get 100 different opinions. With regular maintenance and no abuse the car will run for a long time. Dont baby it is my advice, treat her with respect however and there will be near zero issues.
