Running 264/272 cams without tuning

The Evo 8 has an intake, tbe, and stock BOV, with 264/272 cams.

Is it ok to run it without any tuning, upgraded fuel pump, nor upgraded fuel injectors?

It will be a totally different car if you get it tuned. I would def look into getting a walbro 255 fuel pump and an ECU reflash.

Not really smart to run with those mods, especially cams for too long without a tune. Wait till you get a tune. Its worth the 500$ to get it!

yes! it's ok. i have the same setup back then and had to run it around waiting for time to tune. just don't push it hard and run it too long.
