The tube behind your throttle body that bolts into the front of the intake (the 2" thick tube)

Unbolt it and buy a block off plate off eBay, done...

If you wanna get more complicated, you can go under the driver side car by the fender and unhook the air pump and the tubing that snakes all the way up to the intake which you removed earlier... But a lot of people just unhook the tube from the intake and leave the pump under the fender..

Removing the pump only saves you 5 pounds or so in weight savings.. Hope this helps

Is the AIR the tube that comes out of the lip and into a pump and then back up to the rear of the intake? And isnt there more EGR stuff hooked up to the exhaust?
