so I just bought an alltrack.
I am doing an is20 turbo upgrade.
along with apr DP, intercooler, intake.

I plan on doing the install myself.

my question is, the APR dealer who will flash it is about 45 minutes away...
would there be an issue driving it at normal speeds with all the new hardware before getting the tune?

thanks!

ps: this is my first official post here but Ive been around for quite a while on vortex.

In general, as long as you don't go into boost much if at all, you'll be fine for the drive. Aside from the downpipe/high flow cat the ECU won't notice the turbo swap, but if you did get into it the fuel and boost control won't be there and you're gonna have a bad time.
