Default Emissions stuff.

I have noticed that my engine bay is in bad need of some cleanup activities. I would have posted this in the appearance section but I need a little more tech. info then "relocate your coil packs and get rid of the emissions stuff" What exactly can I get rid of? And how is it done? Will I be setting a bunch of codes if I remove things like the AIR pump? I really don't have the money right now to buy much so I thought I'd see what can be done to spice the car up a bit for free. The car is a 2000 Z28. Any help here is appreciated. BTW I live in Indiaa therefore emissions testing is non existant and not a factor.
Thanks,
Mike

If you don't mind staring at an SES light for a while pull the EGR stuff. It clutters up the engine bay, and looks like crap.

The EGR pipe runs from your passenger side header to some gnarly gizmo to the intake immediately after the throttle body.

Do a search for EGR removal and you should come up with a bunch of stuff.
