None, just some weight savings off the front end and some clean up of the engine compartment.

like parbreak said. Just yank it out if you can get away with it; it makes spark plug changes a bit easier too.

no hp gains, it only runs untill the cats warm up. makes everything a bit cleaner looking under the hood and drops a few lbs.

plus you loose that annoying fan sound when you crank the car (biggest plus for me).

Thanks I'll just leave it in place. If it was worth like 3 or 5 rwhp It would have went.
