Default What is this? AIR system?

I'm removing my egr and air and I'm not sure if I should remove that or leave it on? It's on the intake manifold and it's next to the fuel line if you can see the fuel line right there. Also there is a connector that plugs in to it. Anyone know or can help me?

Not to hijack but I am running into the same issue and wondering what to do with the vacuum lines that connect to the AIR system?

yup just get rid of it. Plug the t-fitting that it connects to behind the intake. HVAC line more specifically.

I think this is the same part I'm not sure what to do with. By "t-fitting", do you mean the vacuum lines attached here?
