sup guys im having alot of problem with the smc+. im plannnig to do the uberchip. so im taking off the 450cc and the smc off but leaving the turbo on there. im install the stock injectors back on so i can drive to school. would it be ok to leave the turbo on there and dont boost at all until i get the chip and ecu and stuff. i will watch the gauge very carefully and stay out of boost. would that be ok?

 

terrible thing to do but technically possible..

 

if you touch boost you're gonna be screwed...

just watch that gauge like a hawk and make sure you don't boost.

if you have a internal wastegate,disconnect it so you cant make boost.when i saw disconnect it i mean actually remove the rod from the valve,not the vacuum line.

 

yes mine is internal and ill do that. so it would be fine then.

 

you realize u can reach full boost with the wastegate complete off on a 14b right? Your turbo is too small todo that with. if you had a masive turbo you could get away with it. If you really want todo this, take off oyur charge piping. Put a cap on the compressor's inlet, poke a small 1/8" hole in it. Then do the same for the outlet.


edit: this doesnt mean you can floor he gas and drive aroudn hard. Just drive it easy.
