New Engine Break-in method

[ScottKelly911]

I already posted this in the regular 911 thread, but since this pertains to new cars I thought I'd post in both places. This is a very interesting article about the engine break-in process.
http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm I was wondering if anyone has had any experience using this method or has any comments on it. The theory behind it makes a lot of sense to me.

This one has been around for a while and there are definately other threads on the subject. Always raises strong views on both sides! Many people (usually engineers!) believe that running an engine hard from new cannot be a good idea but on the other hand ....... Personally I wouldn't be prepared to risk the possible downside if he's wrong!

don't know about the new Porsche engines but the old air cooled ones are already dyno-ran for 30 min after assembly and tested to 5000 rpm before installation into each car. So break-in is just driving the first 500-1000 miles varying the rpm as much as possible to seat all the components. With dry sump lubrication and a good oil pressure from new the engines are built to last 100-200K trouble free miles or 24h at LeMans race conditions (redline after warm up).
