Will I be ok
I decided not to keep my turbo but I kept the the 440cc injectors and 255lph fuel pump installed. I know I should get a tune done but will I be okay for a while. Like a month or so. I also have test pipes, TD exhaust, MrevV2, and intake. And might get headers soon also. Thanks.

you might be able to get some good flames from the muffler! I don't really see a problem w/ running rich b/c you don't have cats...rich conditions lower engine temps.

You will be running soo rich I doubt the car will start. If it does you will have issues with cold start, decel, WOT, etc etc. Also your plugs will foul very quickly. Take the injectors out at a minimium. The pump will also cause you to run rich, not as badly but still its an hour or less to swap. Also excess fuel will contaminate your oil faster and thin it out. This can lead to washed out rings and other nasty things.

Does your car have a return fuel system installed with the injectors/pump. If so, you can just turn down your fuel pressure.
I uninstalled my kit in december, but left the 440's, fuel pump, return system, and EU in the car. I removed the 440's and EU this weekend...so now I'm running stock fuel management and injectors, but the walbro fuel pump and aam return fuel system. I just adjusted fuel pressure and watched my wideband to make sure my AFR was correct.
