    I wish you did too :p
    I wouldn't bother with that in Cali though. Maybe a SC.

    I have a stock box with deck plate mod. One of the vacuum fittings is broke and its a bit dirty but still working order. Got an aFe drop in filter too if you are interested.

    I have to do my emissions. Where do you get 1 gal denatured alcohol? And 1 gal to a full tank? I'm worried about the bigger injectors and piggyback. Did you disconnect your charge pipes? And if so would that totally jack the readings or even work with my piggyback?

    Merry Christmas to you buddy! Hope Santa brought you something.

    Home Depot in the paint section. 1 gallon to a half tank of 91 octane is sufficient to pass (or a quart of DA to a quarter tank). You should disconnect your charge pipes (hook it up cold air intake style) and drive around to see if your wideband reads kinda weird. You really don't need denatured alcohol if you aren't running rich.
    Merry Christmas to you too bud!

    Your injectors and piggyback are tuned based on manifold pressure/vac, so I don't think running without boost is going to negatively effect anything.

    Tried my emissions without the denatured. I disconnected the charge pipes. Didn't pass. He said it was close. Putting in 2 gallons on den.alcohol. I have a full tank. I'm nervous man, this sucks. Do you think the denatured will make it super clean?

    I just realized I left my methanol injection on to. I wonder if that made it better or worse?

    Well. I passed. Put two gallons in to my fuel tank. Made a huge difference in the readings plus I turned the meth off. Rehooked up my charge pipes and am good to go for another two years. I'll know what I need to do for next time. I just want to burn up some of this gas so it doesn't mess up any rubber lines in the system and get it to just regular 91 octane.
