no tune = safe start?

I cant seem to find any info on starting my car without a tune after I install my E-force. Can I reinstall the stock LS2 inj just to get the car on the trailer? Is this OK if I stay under 2k rpm? I would not install the 60* injectors until it was at the tuner. I was told the 60's would wash down the cylinders and its NOT OK to start with them and no tune.

good question. I'm not even sure it will start on the stock tune. Someone will know and chime in.

you can start it and drive it just do not go into boost, and dont put the injectors in yet, it would barely run or not run at all since the computer wont know what injectors are in the car, it's safe to tool around in under 2k rpm till you get the injectors in and the final tune done.

Thanks

I think he means put the stock injectors on it, fire it up, put it on the trailer. Then install the 60s. Blowers rock

If you only plan to run the car for 30 seconds to get it on the trailer I'd say just fire it up and go for it. Without a proper calibration it's going to run like crap whether you have the stock injectors or 60lb injectors in anyhow.
