Default 3 port solenoid traveling?

Conflicting advise on driving about 50 miles for remap after having a 3 port solenoid fitted, is it safe plus a decat exhaust fitted at the same time? The mapper doesn't do fitting parts. Opinions please.

Probably best to just stay off boost if you must drive it. The 3 port will change the boost profile and could potentially cause trouble. The exhaust not so much. Just drive easy!

You can retro fit the 3-port, make the harness and connectors if its an aftermarket part then all you have to do it join the connectors on the day and fit the new boost hoses. Will only take 2 minutes so wont hold up the mapping session.

I drove 70 miles to my mapping session with it fitted. No problem what so ever if you stay off boost, as it is pretty mch redundant until you do!
