Question Any 6 port MT owners willing to do me a favor?

Would any 6 port MT owner be so kind as to please test for me if plug 3 to the pcm is disconnected, if your car will even start? And if it does in fact start, will the car go into limp mode? Thanks

Going by off of what the wires are, the car should still start. Though I do not know if having the Primary 2 Injectors and APV motor unplugged would trigger a limp mode.

yeah all that plug is the Primary-2's, APV position sensor, and APV power..

Its really as simple as someone trying this with that plug disconnected to see if it will start, more or less trigger limp mode. :/ we can only speculate so much.. all help is greatly appreciated.
