Default Turbo build tune???

I am in the middle of a turbo build and i was just wondering what i should do about a tune?

I plan on getting it to the dyno as soon as the build is done, i was just wondering if it would be ok to drive the car to the dyno on the stock tune? or should i rent a trailer to get it down there

And is it worth it to get the MSD timing twister or can they just do all that on the dyno?

Sorry i have no damn clue about anything when it comes to tuning lol

Id probly send your ECM to frost and get a base tune done, then drive it to the local tuner.
