Well, I suppose you *could* get air and EGR fittings welded on the headers... but unless your local emisions laws require it, you might as well delete them both.

Yep. Cleans up the engine bay, weight reduction, and makes plug changes a ton easier.

Once you put longtubes on your car, it basically renders all your emissions equipment pointless. Even with high flow cats on the car.

An AIR pumps only job is to pump clean air into the exhaust so it'll pass the sniffer in California. If you don't live in Cali, take the pump off.
