Open Source Tuning questions

Whats up guys? So I'm just finishing up a turbo swap on my 02 WRX. the TD04 blew so i got a VF39, 650cc Injectors, Tial 38mm EWG, Cobb APv3, Cobb EBC, Walbro 255 fuel pump and a catless up-pipe.

Now, my question is: would driving it before a tune be a bad idea? I'm still trying to decide between GST and FLI here in the bay area and GST told me to not even try to start the car before the tune, but a family friend (master mechanic) told me to let it idle for 30 min once everything is in. Thoughts? comments?

Thanks!

Don't even start the car after installing those injectors.

alright cool! I'm also assuming the car would need an alignment before going on the dyno, correct?
