Will this throw my tune off?

I had my car tuned last summer and at the time i had a bad bov diaphram and a 52 percent leak in cylinder 2. Now i fixed cylinder 2 and had a stage 1 to 2 head porting done. When my car was dynoed they put some damn code thing on my safc 2 so people couldnt #### with it. Why they really did it i think is because then my car could only get dynoed there. Anywase now that thats all done im wearing my car in, but when its done will the tune be so off that i shouldnt beat on it at all in fear or running to lean? Psi and everything is still the same. Basically can i be hard on my car for like 2 weeks till my tuning oppointment is up?

Do you have a logger? If so, just do a quick log to make sure everything is running right.

nope i tried asking around here, last week but couldnt find anyone with a pocketlogger to lend me.

You should really look into buying one there key when upgrading your car. Check out ebay, most of the time you can get a whole logger setup for around $50-60. Well atleast thats what I paid.

Yea i know, either way my question was would you be really worried about your tune being super off or will those differences not worry you horribly?

How much boost are you running? I wouldnt think it would hurt it, but if I was you I would just take it easy on the car for 2 weeks untill you get it tuned again. Especially sense you dont have a logger and cant monitor what exactly your car is doing.

16 psi on an evo 3 16gt all supporting mods and 560cc injectors. I just didnt know if the slight increase in air flow from the head and better boost due to new bov would throw everything off horably. I kinda want to beat on it a little before going to the dyno ### i would hate to have driven 500 miles goin easy then bring it to dyno and have my new conetic blow first time they go all out you know.

Theres really know way of telling exactly how much its going to affect your tune with out some way of monitoring your car. Each car will react differently to mods. I dont think its going to affect it that much but like I said if I was you I wouldnt beat on it.
