GOT THE T/A Running! But WTF?

Ok everyone, after 5 long months of working all day every Sunday, I've finally got the T/A running again for the first time since Novermber. One thing though almost seems too good to be true. There is no check engine light. Everything I've heard indicates that with no EGR and no AIR pump, that the check engine light should definately be on. The motor I've built is listed in my sig. Can anyone figure this out? I'm not complaining the least bit, just a little bit confused. Thanks!

How long did you let the motor run?.....Give it some time and it'll eventually figure out that it has no air pump or egr. it took my car almost three months to figure out that it had no air pump.

Hehe...I still haven't gotten to drive her! I have no front clip Once I get it back from the paint shop and get it broken in though I'll get it stuck on the dyno and see what she'll do. Sounds so sweet though...I may eventually upgrade to the CC306 cam though....just a hair bigger. ;D
