Temporarily Driving w/ Vortech 2.87 pulley w/o Tune
 
So I have found myself in a unique situation. I have a Vortech V2 with a 2.87 pulley getting installed tomorrow, a little later than planned, and I have realized that I will most likely not be able to tune to car before Thanksgiving break. I am a college student and my college town has no Osiris tuner, and the tuner the G drivers used here only periodically visits from Tampa. It's unlikely that he'll make it up again before the break and I need to drive two hours to my home in Tampa without blowing my engine. Is this possible? Obviously not going to be running it hard in the slightest. I have had my car tuned in Tampa for an intake, 5/16 spacer, and Berk HFCs, so there is more fuel going into the engine than stock, but I'm concerned about the 2.87 pulley running to much boost for my car to safely adjust. I have a friend up here who used his single turbo G35 for a few weeks running similar boost without a tune until the tuner visited, but I'm not sure how much I should roll the dice. Thanks for your help!

I drove an hour to my tuner after installing my V3 kit with the 3.12 pulley. I removed the cog belt and babied it until I got there, staying under 3k rpm. I recommend removing the cog belt and staying in vacuum at all times, just to be safe.
