Default what about the air pump?

just finished my exhaust setup on my 02 ss camaro, put the pacesetters with magnaflow cat back ok on to my ? the headers I bought don't have the hookup for the hoses that ran to the air pump so I need to know how to get rid of this stuff all together can I just take all this stuff off (hoses, air pump, and theres something setting @ the back right of the manifold that the hoses run into)

Just rip that crap out.

Neither AIR nor EGR are necessary.

If you follow the AIR tubes you will find the pump in the front driver corner. It can be removed from underneath. Just rip it all out.

You will, of course, get an SES light unless/until you get it tuned away. Then again if you aren't running cats you will already have an SES light to tune away.
