Vex:

I am running an NA 4 port and it is not as easy as disconnecting the outlet from the turbo. You should never have a turbo spinning (exhaust going through it) with the output of the compressor open to atmosphere (they can over-rev).

You could just take the turbo completely off the engine if you block off the coolant feed, oil feed and oil return.

I would leave the turbo on and just stay out of boost.
