Hey all,
This weekend I did a VF34 pinks Walbro swap into my car. I have uppipe/turboback, but my inlet hose, intake, and TMIC are still all stock. I drove 80 miles to get back home and babied it. The car is actually running great!
I obviously am going to get tuned but my question is how long can I safely run like this untuned if I keep babying it. I am driving a 200+ mile round trip this weekend and don't want to harm my car.
Any help is greatly appreciated! : ) : )

P.S. Again I know I need to get tuned and will but just dont see how I can fit it in before this weekend's trip : /

 

Bump

 

Brian! how have those Soc classes helped you in post-college life? lol

i think you would be fine if you stay outta boost as ive heard ppl going from pnt A to B untuned without any problems.

 

Dont drive it. Rent a car for $100 instead.

 

Are you atleast running on a Cobb Base Map???? If so then you should be good to go, if not.... i would not recommend driving the car that far.

 

Don't drive it untuned (you did injectors so the ECU needs to be tuned for them).

 

oh god.. serious

there is another case of someone hydro locking the car due to pinks and no tune.

I would suggest not driving the car AT ALL TILL YOU GET IT TUNED.

or swap in the old injectors and don't run it hard at all.

 

Do you have an accessport?

 

yikes....
No I have no accessport or tune
I am currently tuned for stock injectors, stock turbo, stock TMIC, but with turboback and Uppipe.

Problem is Accessports are sold out everywhere.
I drove about 80 miles home the way it is now last night. If my tuner would call me back it might help : /
