Question Any danger in running these mods?

Just purchased my 95 FD a few months ago. I have planned on performing several mods to my car but due to backorders and delays I have not fully completed my project. So far the following have been completed.

AST, Bonez downpipe and high flow cat, racing beat dual catback. Apexi Power FC, ACT heavy duty clutch and light weight flywheel. The Power FC has been tuned to these mods to richen up the fuel.

I have an M2 airbox & Intercooler on order but it might be a while.

Is there any danger in driving my car with such a wide-open exhaust but a stock front end? Anything I should be aware of?

Also plan on the vacuum hose job and radiator replacement this spring.

Thanks

If the power FC has been tuned properly, and you are not boosting too high, you should have no problems.

I believe that most people don't like to run the stock Intercooler higher than 12psi. So as long as you are at or below that you should be fine.

I ran that same setup with the stock IC for a while. then installed the FMIC and still haven't had the PFC tuned for the FMIC. Still going!
