rev to 6000 and repeatedly dump the clutch.

The best thing to do is varied engine speed driving. Don't drive on the highway at a steady 70mph for 10 hrs. The motor really needs the varied engine speed that city driving provides. I would probably change my oil with conventional oil at no more than 1000miles and then change to synthetic at 3000miles. If you have an AT I've heard you should change the fluid at ~25K, I have an MT and switched to synthetic at 30K.
Don't go drag racing for a little while, lol.
