How to drive after a build?!

Hi,
sorry for what might be a noob question...but I just had my EVO 7 built (2.3l stroker kit with eagle crankshaft and rods and wiseco pistons, HKS 272s, Apexi AVC-R, Exedy dual but stock turbo).
I already have 500kms since the built and drove the car very easy (no boost) with the stock map.
Can I push the car without map without risking anything?! (knock, overboost...)
How much boost can I push without remap?!

thanks!!!

i wouldnt push the car at all till you have a proper tune in it - i know your still on stock turbo but you have other variables on the motor - such as displacement cams and what not - get a proper tune and then you can go all out

Stay out of boost until you get a tune
