    Might sound silly mate but I'd personally put my car into limp mode for safety till it's mapped if it was mine ;)

    Just my 2p, don't rush it, it should be properly set up with at least a suitable run-in map before you take it away? If anything goes wrong, and there is plenty to do just that, be sure who is going to fix it and at who's cost.

    As I say, just my 2p, hope you enjoy it!:)
