Just rip all that stuff out. Take out all the hoses and pumps and if your Macs have a port for them like mine did you'll have to purchase block off plates. SpeedInc sells the block offs for the headers and the one for the manifold. Very cheap. Like 13 bucks or somethin for all three. Then if you have LS1edit you go in there and turn off everything that has to do with your emissions so you dont set your SES light. It gets a lot of crap out of your engine compartment.

What about the egr valve in the intake manifold?
