Looks like it's gone, since you have headers.

Don't know what state you're from, but they'd have be pretty blind to miss that you've got headers if that's an issue in your state.

There's a rubber hose that runs across the drivers shock tower towards the front of the car.. then you'd find two hoses bolted up to the headers but your cars seems to be lacking those.. so you should be good to go. If your check engine light is off someone deleted the codes.

Sticky at the top of this Forum has a link on how to remove the AIR system and has pics showing what it looks like before it's removed. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ferrerid=13535

Just because you have headers doesn't mean AIR is gone. If they are not the "race" version they will have the tubes for the AIR on the headers.

Yes we know this, but I see no provisions on those headers, and all the tubes are gone. AIR system has been removed, good luck man!
