Right now I'm scratching my head trying to find time to build a legal exhaust system so I can pass emmisions and keep the car "legal" by 11/22.... I hate CT. After this it's one more time.... ugh. Lets hope they don't pop an engine this time.
Hey, I have an idea, make up an NA exhaust for the emissions test, then there will be no boost, and they can't hurt the engine. You have to fab up exhaust for the cat anyway.

You can download the driving cycle they will run and go to Dave's and tune the map to run in the Stoic range throughout that cycle (and get some NA power numbers too).
