Fuel Evap Purge
I have a turbo’d 2005 s2000. Is it possible to activate and control fuel evap purge on AEM Series 2 with a turbo setup?
That was one thing I hated with my turbo setup, the smell of gas always in the car and everyone kept saying it was normal.

I just ended up deleting the entire evap and venting the line. You’ll have initial fuel smell, but after a day at rest in my garage it’s gone.
driving round town I don’t smell anything at all. Just in a small enclosed space Like my garage I smell some.
your canister is likely full of fuel and needs to be dumped anyways if you are smelling it a lot.

I've got a question. Well, 2 i guess. My ECU uses the evap purge pinout for the boost control solenoid. What will happen if I just leave the system, nonfunctional in the car? The ECU will send the code for high voltage on the purge, but I can suppress that. But will there be anything happening in the now non-functioning system that would be detrimental? Second question is. Since its just a grounding PWM that activates it. Could I theoretically just ground that stock wire every now and then activating the solenoid so it does "purge" just not on its own. Removing the system doesn't sound that great due to the smell everyone reports.
