Question VF-34 Question

I have a VF-34 Turbo only. Can I install that the turbo without the injectors, fuel pump and tuning? Or will it mess things up? I'm planning to get the whole setup soon. Just excited to put it on. Or Should I Wait? Thanks.

You can, but you should run in on spring pressure (8-10psi)

You cannot just bolt it on. It flows a lot more air and even at same boost levels your car will run dangerously lean. You remove the vaccum hoses from it (and remember how they go so that you can put it back later on) and connect the wastegate nipple to the compressor nipple. That way you will run 8-10psi which is wastegate pressure.
