Arrow Evap line boost leak?

Hey guys, I've already done the air and egr delete should I just go ahead and get rid of the evap line also? Does it have a check valve in it or something? It seems like it would be a easy place to have a boost leak. Can't I just cut the line near the tank and put a breaher filter on it? Thanks

Yeah that's what I've heard so I probably will, but how does boost not get sent back into the tank? Any one know if there is a check valve?

There is a purge solenoid that seals it off when it is not in operation. Mostly the evap system is used under cruse and idle, so no real worry there. I'm 99.9% sure the solenoid does not open when the car is in PE mode
