Default I got a mailorder tune...but (problem, need quick help)

I sent me pcm to frost and got it tuned for my new cam, true duals, headers, dual valvesprings, and 3600 stall. The stall was SUPPOSED to go in the other day, however my buddy isnt able to do it until next week. My car is tuned for the stall, what would be the adverse effects of driving it because it is my daily?

Maybe pulling thru the brakes a bit???
The tune may have some idle speed added...

I doubt it would matter. Nonetheless, I would contact Frost. Sucks that you have to email and wait...

There isn't much "tuning" for a stall. Shift points and lock up speeds may be adjusted some but that won't hurt anything. Also some trans codes may also be turned off. Again, that doesn't matter.

I need to drive it 30 minutes to my dad's shop to get the stall installed on the stock converter with the stalled tuned in.
