Default Break in time?

This might be overkill to some, but has anyone followed a certain break in period on their car before they started 7000 + RPM shifts? All of the engines that I have had done over the years have all been by Japanese tuning shops and have always had some break in time. The most common out of the three that I have had done are:

First 500km-nothing above 3K rpm
500-700km-nothing above 4K rpm
700-900km-nothing above 5K rpm
900-1000km-nothing above 6K rpm

After 1000km return to shop for oil flush/change final cpu tuning and boost settings.

Roughly 600 miles for the comparitive break in schedule. Easy to figure out a table with similar numbers. But, I was wondering if anyone has followed this.....or just simpley started beating the hell out of their 370 off the rip?
