CA18DE non turbo manifolds

[xtypical360aznx]

I'm about to buy a CA18DET powered Fastback 240sx and i live in washington seeing how turbos cant pass emissions around here. It may sound like a dumb question cause i'm not used to nissans but do they make non turbo'd CA18 exhaust manifolds. So i can take off the turbo run it through emissions then put it back on. and if so what do i have to do to readjust the car to being non-turbo other than just removing the turbo and exhaust stuff

Having the turbo on or off, it really doesn't make a difference for emission, it is the air/fuel ratio that makes the difference, so don't even bother removing the turbo as it you will have the same results. The Ca18de has smaller injectors than the ca18det.

Not sure how you guys run your emission test in the USA, but here in Ottawa, Canada, they run the car at 40km/hr starting from 0km/hr and gradually bring it up to 40km/hr, so the turbo never kicks in at that kind of acceleration.

You need to adjust your air/fuel ratio and have a cat or two on your exhaust.

Good luck,

This isnt possible. The ca18det is a turbo engine and the ca18de is na. Obviously. Therefore they are different internally aswell as externally. This also wouldnt work because you would need different ECUs, and a few other things. Why not try and pass emissions with the stock KA and then swap the ca. Depending on the year of the vehicle, cars 95 and older will not have to do emissions in 2007.

****, somebody better go tell that to my car thats running a ca18de on stock det management.

and my mates which is half way through a supercharger conversion, running a stock DET ecu and an NA exhaust manifold

Just make sure the car is in good tune. Throw some new plugs in it, change the O2 sensor, and make sure the car has a Cat on it. Advance auto has some crap that you add to the fuel that is supposed to guarantee that you pass emissions.

It's entirely possible. Disconnect the wastegate arm on your turbo and drive the car. Thats almost exactly how it would drive.

Emissions testing varies from state to state. What may be the law in one state, isn't in another. For example, there is no emission testing at all in my county here in Florida.
