boost leak question

i had recently sent out my synapse bov for a port c delete and still haven't got my stett charge pipe adapter from them, so my car is sitting at the mechanic's shop and he wants me to take it out, can i drive the car home without the bov on it? i realize it will be a boost leak but is that harmful to the car should i avoid it and get it towed?

any input is appreciated thanks!

Where is your stock CP? It is a quick change.

Don't drive the car with no BOV. You will be sucking in garbage right into your engine and taking a risk.
