Yes you can go wide open throttle. You just have to keep track of which cells on the histogram are under power enrichment and don't make changes to them. Save that area for wideband. The way you can do that is move your mouse across the chart display in the places where you go wide open throttle while watching to see what cells you're in on the histogram.

You could set TPS hot and cold to 100 in fuel control, PE. That way it takes a full 100% to enter PE mode.

unless you're tuning w/wideband and shooting for around 13.0:1 or so... I would not reccommend disabling or trying to bypass PE.... heavy load + 14.7:1 AFR is not a good thing
