They don't have EGR, just the air pump and lines will have to come off on the '01s/'02s for 'race only' headers to work.

No EGR on '01 and newer. You will have to remove the AIR system, race headers don't have provisions for this either. It includes a pump and a few hoses. See this site for removal steps:

Your car will throw a code though. Search is your friend.

one more quick question, it is to my understanding that i will need o2 extensions, but dont need sims (all it does is throw a code, which !air does anyway) is this correct? sims do nothing but take code away, and code does nothing?
