You can pass a "creator" argument to create_engine if you want to create
the connection yourself:

http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_1_0/core/engines.html#custom-dbapi-connect-arguments

http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_1_0/core/engines.html#sqlalchemy.create_engine.params.creator

Hope that helps,
