How many miles before your SS/TC felt like it had loosened up?

09 SS/TC with almost 900 miles on it. I know it takes a few thousand miles on it really feel like its broken in all the way,.......at how many miles did it take you to really notice the car had loosened up for you?
My previous car was an MS3, although stock, it had serious midrange power. But this car I think already beats it on top end, I miss the midrange torque.

Around 1500 miles my car had a moment where I was like ..... holy **** .... It finally feels quick. Before that it was boggy ....felt like it was pulling timing or like it was 100 degrees with 100% humidity outside.

Yes! It feels like I'm pulling an extra 500 pounds in the trunk right now.

I took it easy for about... 100 miles. Then She started really getting broken in

I never noticed a power difference before my tune.

My car was bad ... I would get on it and you could hear where it started to run crappy .....the exhaust note would change . It's hard to explain but between about 3K rpm and 5000 rpm it would run like ****.
