Default need help quick

Just got my SCT2 and TI intake in. Looks great but when I plugged the tuner in and followed the instructions it told me that i had the wrong vehicle.
Major issue, i know. What ca i do about this? also is it safe for me to be driving with that intake untuned? If not let me know so i can reinstall the stock one before dark.

thats a bit of peace of mind the only driving i'll be doing is to and from school so it shouldn't be a huge deal. Any ideas on the tuner?

I would not drive it with the TI CAI on with a stock tune.

Just drove it around the block and it seemed ok, I have a 3 mile drive to school tommorow right before i take it to performance autosport to get the tuner reflashed to work on my car. I can go out and reinstall it stock if i need to. Any other thoughts?
