Removing the air injection system. About 10ft of rubber hose and an air pump in the front bumper.

it means take me off im pointless. im not sure exactly what it means but it sends clean air into your cats. its kinda pointless if u dont have cats or if dont have emissions. it cleans up the engine bay pretty nicely though

The air pump is on the driver's side in the front bumper. That stuff is a pain to remove but it is worth it. The only thing that will cost you is getting that AIR and EGR stuff tuned out.

The "!" means delete. Such as !EGR (delete EGR) !AIR (delete AIR pump) and so on. A list of all the acronyms can be found int the sticky above. Here's a link for you.

Fresh outside air is pumped into the exhaust system via the manifolds after a cold start/restart to heat the cats quicker thus making them more efficent during open loop. More oxygen = hotter cats quicker.
