Default Avoiding a HUGE problem?

Ok gotta ask a few questions here.

I put in a cam that was much larger then this one in the sig. I went down to the cam thats in my sig. Now when i put the original cam i put a vacuum canister in my car to keep the pressure for my brakes. You know the one you plug in to the back of the intake and use the rubber hosings and what not. Now, since i have changed cams to the current one. Could i remove that canister and not have problems with my brakes? Further more, could that canister effect air temperature that could effect the P1153 and P1133 codes for the temp being too low (lame terms). SO, lets say you say nah no problems taking that thing out. What should i plug into the back of the intake instead? Just the normal hosing back into the brakes?

You shouldn't need the canister for that cam. It's close to mine and my brakes work fine. My vacuum line for the brakes is hooked just like it was from the factory. Don't know about the codes though.
