    It should start and run okay but just not great.

    Raise the idle to 800rpm to help it out. I wouldn't exactly want to drive it a whole lot if things are tuned. If fuel trims are all over the place it's going to want a lot of work done right away.

    You don't need to break the engine in, doing a full heat cycle will be good enough if you are just wanting to flush the oil. No need for 500 miles or any of that stuff.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    A license is a one time cost for credits. Once you license the computer you can make an unlimited amount of changes.

    You can buy the standard MPVI2 if you want. Just know that it will make putting in a wideband a little more involved. You can still use a serial adapter on the laptop or wire the wideband in through an unused 5v reference circuit on the PCM. The 2nd option with the PCM is more involved but still works great.
