Got my smog done on the Spec.B. Passed easily, with all mods, e85, Snail tune, & no sniffer test. Star Certified smog shop, called Quick Smog Check Center in SC.

Found out why I'm not boosting full 22psi. UP has a large crack at the weld. Time to upgrade, but with what, is the question.

Who welded it, what did it cost? I may just want a GS one, since most of my car is that way already. That one in there is an Invidia.
