This is probably a crazy idea - but - maybe reset the ecu?

Put in the Supra pcv, and changed the oil to get rid of the 15w50 oil.
Took it for a drive with the better half following.
Last time we did this, the first time I engine braked, she saw smoke, this time, she did not.
Drove it around for a bit, and she did definitely saw gray smoke once, and maybe a second time, out of 15-20 attempts.
I guess I'll wait until the Leprechaun run when hopefully Greg will be behind me to watch....
Keeping my fingers crossed!

one check you can do since you're already done 4,835, a wet compression test.
new injectors, new plugs, compression good, oil consumption not bad, gas mileage not bad...i say carry on and let it be.

If not, will be trying a stock cat.... just need to find a S2000 parked on the street, or in a garage so I can borrow their cat!
