Default Is it safe???

just want to know some of your guys ideas and thoughts.
IF you slapped on a turbo kit, would you get on it? or drive it easy till you get tuning?? if the car is running stock ecu but only using high pressure fuel pump and fmu and STOCK injectors?

so the question is
Can you tourqe it or would you rather not?
thanks

What do you plan on tuning if you only have a fuel pump and fmu..

If this is one of those generic turbo kits with the intercooler and fmu running low boost then I see nothing wrong with driving hard..Those kits are made for the stock motor at low boost..And the fmu is pretty safe at low boost..Runs crazy rich but whatever.....,,Assuming the motor is healthy..

I run 14psi on a FMU... missing link + walbro 255 + B&M FP Modifier... on my stock b18b1 if I hammer down on the highway it leans right out but in the 1/4 mile it doesnt lean out to the last 10 foot or so... i beat the **** out of it and she holds up I got hondata but its just sitting in the box on the side of my bed?

good luck

well guys, im actually running a spark racing turbo kit. Just like n20civic said, if i gun it on the freeway it will bog but in the streets not as much. well actually to be honest im not sure of what i want to tune my car with, it will probably be a hondata but for now i dont think im going to be doing t hat anytime soon.
My o2 sensor isnt hooked up and i was wondering will that effect or make my car bog?? cuz of the check engine light??
thanks for the good help so far...
