Yes, I have a brand new one I just pulled of my car because I removed the emissions. I can bring it to the meet.

I would if I had an electric air pump that could drive a cat
The only thing this pump is good for is driving the VDI/AUX ports.

What you do is route your charge pipe from the turbo to the Catalytic converter, then just hook the AFM up to an intake tube to the TB. voila, instant clean exhaust

In theory...

It might richen way out due to the missing boost, an AFC could tune it out... but then if you had an AFC you wouldn't need an air pump anyway.

That sounds about right.

I get more frustrated with wiring harness issues and stripping bolts on exhaust studs then anything else.

that'd be CARB'd engines. 13b's with carbs are just as simple.

I have been taking pictures of the whole prossess.

I love being able to rip out most of the stuff in the way. Yet, I am so tempted to pull out my AC . . .

interesting idea.would definitely limit the combustion and also thin out yer exhaust.course that would prob cause some nasty backpressure in the cat. Would be interresting to see someone attempt that setup idea.
