Fabricate a solid plate to bolt between the turbo and manifold so the turbo never even sees any exhaust flow.

The point here is to prevent boost without making it difficult.

You ******** make ---- way way harder than it has to be.

i might just try and drive it and don't boost. i can't see passing on the highway being any fun though. i still think the best/safest way is to tow it. its just expensive. ive drove turbo cars before. i used to have a volvo s70 t5 and it was hard to keep out of boost and it didn't spool until around 3500. i could disconnect a charge pipe, but its a long ways for that.

Personally I would just look for a friend with a truck and an auto trailer. If you know someone who is willing to help ya out then I would do it that way. :P

i think once you know what boost feels like and have driven iwth it before you'll know what everyone is talking about ... looks like you havent felt or driven a boosted car before
