Default Running meth without tune help please

Hey guys I have an 01 ls1 with a Maggie and a 3.0 pulley and just installed an aem meth kit and was wondering if I could run it on meth for a couple weeks till I get tuned for it. Are there any ill effects to running it that way? I'm running 50/50 mix

I recently asked the same thing. I was told that it might run a little rich. It's probably going to depend if you are running it before or after the maf.

I'm running it after the maf and was wondering if by it running rich will it make the car run slower?

Yes it will run a lot more rich unless you use a small nozzle, yes it will most likely be slower but it really depends. It will be safer though
