Yes, you need to grind it in properly over first few hours, with high power settings, or your future oil consumption will be higher. It's a good time to decide which oil you will use long-term, as if you run on W grades for a long time, then switch to multi, you risk some gumminess from deposits from previous oils. So if you want to go multi in a new engine, do it as soon as you finish the straight.
