I think you'll be ok to start it and idle, but that's not really enough, as you will need to get the cooling system and oil system up to max running pressure to check for leaks as you have changed some essential parts to these systems. You can do what you can until you KNOW it's safe to do so!

Forgot to mention car was mapped to the orignal spec. I can't see that the things i've added will make much difference apart from the fuel pressure reg and injectors but if i put my 440s back in and set regulator to standard pressure setting surely i should be ok?

Like i say only reason is to check everything is ok, after that it will not be used untill being mapped again and will be getting trailored to the rolling road.

it`ll run like a bag of nails on the injectors but might only might idle to check for leaks etc

The potrted turbo and headers are the concern, either way, it's your car, if you think it will be fine then why ask? Obviously not, best speak to your mapper

thanks for the info r1c. thats the thing im not sure thats why im asking on here. i have been speaking to duncan @racedynamix but have not had a reply regarding running it up before taking it to him so thought i'd ask on here too.

my main worry is taking for the mapping session and then have any issues wasting everyones time.
