When 1st time run turboed car, what fuel setting? SMC related
 
Ok so say i got everything done, all oil lines hooked up, all pipes all the injectors are good... and i use a SMC or SMC 500..

what do i set to get it into "safe" mode so i can drive for now to the dyno shop to get it tuned??

Pick some of the settings in the "settings post" in the engine management section. If you have an air/fuel gauge then just make sure its in rich till you get to the dyno.

Ok -35.. but what i'm worried is, regardless if i tow or not, the dyno operator doesn't know the A/F unless he runs it at WOT on the dyno to redline, so if he does that, doesn't that pose a risk?

it should be fine...it will just stutter a little i think from too much fuel....this is all assuming you have 450 injectors

Why not turn the boost down on the first dyno pass so you can see the air/fuel curve. Then straighten out the fuel curve and turn up the boost.

turning down the boost is not that simple
