The oil that comes in the cars from the factory has to be left in the car until the first service or till at least 6k anyway, so Honda quote.

As for the running in, i used the method in the link on my two CTRs, i warmed up and ragged the tits out of it, with a mixture of what was mentioned.

I used heaps of oil, as expected(as stated in link) for the first 6000 miles, then i switched over to fully synthetic, and never used a drop after that until i sold the car.
My first CTR i have to say i ragged heavier than my facelift EP3, and i felt my first car was the quickest of the two.
