I'm going to make this short and sweet but any help is greatly appreciated.

I am having a 2018 intake manifold and headers installed this weekend on my 2014 mustang GT. I have a tune for the headers all ready to go, but the tuner I'm currently using "doesn't support 2018 intake manifold tunes". I know I know. Switch your tuner..I am getting a Dyno tune the day after install. The problem I'm having and my question is...Is it okay to start the car and drive it to the shop, to get Dyno tuned, a couple miles down the road without a specific tune for my new intake manifold?

You might slide out if you are going too fast.

I would sure think that if you were very gentle and didn't go crazy, you should be fine. It's not going to starve for fuel or overfuel due to the intake.

Does the 2018 intake have the variable runners? If so that's likely the deal. The runners changing length will mess with the tune. Just take it easy should be fine.
