Wow, what a long list, but not that bad.

1. Smog pump, yes you can do away with it, not sure how, I do know there are brackets and pulleys to eliminate them. (Post a thread on it and you will get replies)

2. VAT's Yes you can override it, I never needed to, it works perfect.

3. CAT's I guess so, once again post a specific thread.

Did youget any codes for the VAT's troubles, clean the keys, the pellets in the can get dirty and give false readings.

I may not be able to help in all areas but I'll try.
