Default Driving to the rolling road with new components

Hi All,

I plan on having my blobeye wrx remapped very soon. I have been driving the car currently with decat exhaust and greens panel filter however I will need to fit my walbro fuel pump, decat up pipe and Sequential BOV ready for the map.

My issue is I will be fitting the components myself but will need to drive 60 miles to the rolling road with the new components fitted. If I plod along and do not spool, will this be an issue?

Thanks

You could even drive on boost, none of them will affect anything.

Drive off boost if possible. De-cat up-pipe will improve spool and may promote overboost with the better exhaust you have fitted. No problem building up a little boost to check no leeks etc, just don't go wild.
