Dilemma....Car needs to smog proof for Cali laws and I have all these wonderful mods that is problematic...I need a car to drive around and my time is limited on what i can do.

Options I've been thinking

1. Replace required parts back to stock in order to pass smog.
2. Sell car to private party (even though seller needs to have it smog tested prior to it being sold)
3. Trade-in at dealership but one in particular eye balled and it said 3-4k.
4. Ship car back to FL and try to sell it there without major hassles compared to Cali.

It hits me hard twice a year. The real reasons for it no longer apply. Stop it already.

With ya on that Scotty...Really sucks to have to work that night, even worse in the military, you get a 9 hour shift with no OT.

So the report was approved last night. Ended up being 36 pages. Written and approved in less than one week. Frickin' mini-thesis.

Normally I'd have my engineers write the reports, but I felt I had to step in to make it happen ASAP, and drive it to completion. Nothing like feeling your ass is on the line to spur immediate action, LOL.

Finally got to leave work at a decent hour yesterday (only worked 11 hours, and didn't take anything home).

Glad it worked out for you, I had no doubt, you are, after all, one of my heroes.
So, maybe you should reward yourself for the hard work. Huge Porterhouse should be in your immediate future. And maybe a trip to an HPDE somewhere. A fast drive just makes me feel so much better.

^ Haha, thanks for the "atta boy", Chuck.

I DID make NY Strips last night for the wife and I.

As for the fast drive, I need to fix the problem with my blinking cruise light CEL. I think I may have another O2 sensor that has failed (as the symptoms appear identical).

With all the other crap going on, I haven't taken the time to hook up my laptop and read the specific code. Maybe posting here will motivate me...

Yeah, I got the 0244 wastegate code yesterday morning on my way to Starke, 19+PSI of boost on a stock tune.
I finally got my exhaust squared away, I put on the downpipe a month or so ago, I also got my Oil Pressure gauge connected. I was going to try to set up my MBC with the In-Cabin control, but issues with the other 2 things took too long. Also, how the hell did you run your cable & where did you mount the MBC? The cable is not very flexible, I was thinking from above the deadstep, through the lower grommet hole, around the top front of the motor, (across the AC/Alt guard) and mount the MBC over by the intake. I'm interested in how you did it, and how it works for you. Let me know please, I'll be mounting my MBC near the EBC for now, but it can be moved later.

I mounted mine on the plastic trim (driver side fender) just under the hood release. It is within easy reach, sits away from my left shin, and the cable didn't feel stressed.

I figured that myself, fairly straight line to the firewall access hole. Where did you route the cable and mount the MBC itself? I originally thought on the firewall, near the stock EBC location, but getting the cable there may be difficult. Like I said before run the cable up and over the motor, (maybe attached to the AC/Alt cover) and put the MBC around the stock filter. Yours ran where?

MBC itself was mounted near the stock EBC location. Ran the cable over the top of the engine.

The PITA was getting the cable through the firewall. Had to have my son hold a flashlight so I could guide it to the light.

DO YOU SEE THE LIGHT???

Don't go into the light!
Also, without the instructions, I am having a few issues figuring out how to connect the cable to the MBC body. I think I have it now though.
Don't want to mess with it now though, I'll get it done after my tune.
I looked for instructions online, but couldn't find it.
