Emulators and Rings

This isn't a BS call. But this looked like the best forum to ask a question about a rule.

Is it legal to use an emulator to get ring records? Here is the situation:

- As you may know, SA2(DC) and SA2:B have a few levels where the ring layout is different. Too get all ring records, you must have both versions.
- Since I don't have a DC, I downloaded SA2. The only problem is, its a dreamcast game. You probably know that dreamcast emulation sucks - the game has a 10-20 frame rate compared to the regular 60!
- This extreme slow down allows for much faster reaction time. It is much easier to input actions quickly and to get better timing. This is what causes the dilemma: is it okay to have an advantage like this over the console DC?
- One last note: I have already gotten the max of this stage on GC. The only difference is a few lines of rings are longer in the DC version, allowing for 8 extra rings. I will have to do no maneuvers I haven't done on my normal-speed GC version.
