Im about to start my eaton swap and the nearest tuning shop is about 100 miles away, can you drive the car unturned for that long as long as you don't go wot? or does it need a tune right away?

If you run your stock MAF and injectors you should be ok. Stay out of boost and swap everything when you get there. Or ask your tuner for a start up tune.

^ Yep. My tuner emailed me a start up tune for mine. Still swapping right now...

I would not run it with the stock maf/injectors though but that's just me.

I will be running the cobra maf and injectors. would I still need a start up tune for the 100 mile trip? I would be keeping it under 3krpms.

If you don't want to trailer it, then yes.

Prolly wouldn't hurt to hold the bypass open on the side of the blower. That would eliminate the chance of any boost building
