My motto is "If it don't break the first time you use it hard, it won't break later". Applies to all sorts of things like hammers and rocks. But, if you don't feel comfortable breaking in your motor hard (search for some tips on how to do this), then don't. In the end it's peace of mind vs HP. Just no prolonged highway drives for the first few hundred klicks.
Regardless of whether you have a catchcan or not, you'll loose some oil. Whether that goes back into your combustion chamber or not depends on having a catchcan or not.
