stock tune afrs okay with 3 port boost solenoid?
I'm trying to keep my car as stock as possible and just raising the boost up to 21psi using a 3 port boost solenoid. Everything on my car is bone stock.
I was planning on hooking up a wideband to make sure my afrs were okay once I hooked up the 3 port, but come to find out I can't put an o2 bung on the stock downpipe.
So I was wondering if my afrs would be okay if I was to just hook up the 3port and up the boost to 21psi. Anyone know?

Looks like I'll have to at least upgrade the downpipe then. But then if I upgrade the downpipe, can I run it with the stock cat? Or would it be too restrictive when I turn up the boost?

Im running a 100cell HFC (the best of both worlds) IMO...
BUT... if ur gonna run the stock exhaust, I would run a TP, just to free up as much airflow as posible! And it'll still be quiet.
If u need any assistance/guidance, LMK...

Thanks Phil, I don't mind running a test pipe but last evo I had I was running an RRE rally cat and would get the CEL in the dash even though I had an 02 bung added to it with the 02 sensor connected. I hate seeing any CELs on at all.

put the wbo2 in the front o2 bung run open loop and when your done tuning re-install the front 02.. simple and temporary fix till you can get a bung and have a more permanent set up...

That's good to know! Muffler guy put it up on the lift. When he saw the stock downpipe with the heat shielding on it, he said he couldn't add the bung. Guess he was just too lazy to do it, probably cuz it was lunchtime.
If I keep the stock downpipe in place do I still need to replace the cat with a high flow in order to hit 21psi with the 3 port? I don't mind a little restriction in order to keep the car completely smog legal.
