Default Should I Wait Until Broken In To Start Modding??

Does it matter if I were to start modding my car as soon as I get it or should I leave it in complete stock form during break in? Also any recommendations on the break in process??? Thanks in advance!!!

I didn't. I picked my car up monday afternoon. By that night (with less than 100 miles on the odometer), i had added the axel-back exhaust, the C&L Intake, and the predator tuner.
I'm about to add sequential taillights within the next week. i just got the kit in today.

I got mine sideways out of the dealers lot, beat it like a rented mule on the way home, and drag raced it at the valley in NY two days and 200 miles after I took delivery. That was 4 hard driving months ago. All is well.
