Anyone Installed a 180mm and run it without a tune? Just wondering If i can do so until i send in ecu for a tune?

You can order a "box tune" and flash it yourself. I would never risk it with no tune.

who would you recommend i admire your sig thus my reason for asking bip?

The bypass valve would most likely open to leak out extra boost
There are good tuners around but EC seems to be the easiest to deal with

I would recommend talking with various tuners and then picking one. I like BIP bc of Craig here on the board and the tuner Tony and owner Jason are great to deal with. They are "local" to me although getting the car over to ATL from Birmingham is tricky when dropping the car off. I always have to get someone to follow me over so I can ride back.

Bip powered here too easy to deal with.

I wouldn't drive it without a tune.

I drove mine for a little bit with a 185mm, just easy driving. My tuner did mention that I was lucky I didn't blow the motor.

Not true, sneakyneon did numerous 1/4 mile passes with a pulley with no tune and has logs to prove that the ecu was bleeding off the boost by opening the bypass valve
It's not recommended to do but it's unlikely you will blow up the motor as the stock ecu has fail safes and runs rich from factory

It's not worth risking...

We can send you a remote tuning cable to tune at home and you can use our euro-flash software and email files back and fourth.

its on sale for the tune, cable, and software for $399
