As long as the holes are plugged you can drive without them. No tune means the MIL will code

I did for a while. Just cap the connections and the code has to be tuned out, apparently. The car won't "self tune" though. They're not a "learning computer" like many earlier ones are. Whatever they need to "re-learn," it is done within 20 seconds or so. It's a fast PCM setup.
