Default Will I be okay without a tune?

Hey guys! I recently put a rear in my trans am and have yet to break it in for 500 miles! I知 in the process of an intake and throttle body swap and was wondering if I値l be okay without a tune for a few hundred miles?

What intake and TB are you going with? Coming from the stock LS1? Not touching the injectors or MAF?

Car has already been tuned for cam, head, and injectors! Also keeping stock maf! Only things being changed now are tb and intake. Going with fast 92 as well as a Nick Williams throttle body!

I had a tune done on mine with cam/heads and ls6 intake... stock MAF with bigger injectors. Car ran like stock.... Changed up intake shortly after to FAST 92 and NW 92 kept stock MAF same injectors as before....tune was WAY off. But you'll be able to drive it around for a while without hurting it.
