turbo kit on no tune..
if you had a turbo kit on and hooked up but not tuned for it yet and had to drive it.
would you guys rather leave the WG off of it to make no boost?
or
leave the last of the cold side piping off and let turbo boost into nothing and put air filter on MAF/TB or both open cold side turbo/MAF? and leave WG on
thanks

your not ready for boost.. both of those ideas are bad.. if for some strange reason you can afford a FI setup on a ls1, but not a tune. best thing to do is drive it normal and stay out of boost.. drive like an old lady or pick the pieces up off the ground.

If you're driving it TO the tuner, just have everything connected and stay out of boost. You're tuner will appreciate that it's all together as you would be driving it. Also, you should make sure all your connections are tight and there are no boost leak issues. Will keep you from wasting your tuner's time if you have boost leaks.

have everything hooked up and just baby it to the tune shop if its near by. im assuming you didnt put larger injectors and 2-3 bar MAP sensor in it yet? if so, the car wont run.... ask me how i know lol
but yes, as long as you dont go speed racer on it, you'll be fine. just stay out of boost and youll be fine. the larger the turbo the easier it will be lol my T76 at part thottle wouldnt see past -6vac putting around town doing 35-45mph
