Default Switching from log to a ramhorn!

Hey guys, I'm currently running an Ultimate racing turbo kit. I made 375 hp on 91 at 11 psi. Made 523 hp on e85 at 20psi. Anyways, I purchased a Ramhorn Forged performance manifold to replace my log manifold. It's getting installed this Wednesday. I was wondering if it's safe to drive around with the new manifold? I'm asking because it will probably be another 2 weeks before I can get it retuned, thanks. Btw, I will post the before and after dyno graphs to see how much power the ramhorn helps me pick. The only other part I have installed on my car is a SOS throttle body since the last tune.

I would think you can drive it but dont do any moderate to hard pulls until you get retuned.

The temptation is so strong that you usually do it anyways lol even if it isn't full throttle

You Wuzzies...! hehehe.! You can drive the car but try to not boost over 5psi. You already have pulled timing and gas for 11psi as mentioned by you in the post so with the new manifold it might run a bit leaner as of the added flow.
