Will my car make it

I just purchased a Buschur Delux front mount, upper intercooler pipe, intake and test pipe. My question is will it be bad for my car to install all the parts in my driveway then drive from Greenbay to AMS (~250 miles) for a custom dyno tune.

You will be just fine as long as you don't tear on it on the way there.

You can drive the car just fine. Do not do WOT open pulls as the AFR's will be off significantly.
